After reading about volunteering abroad, you've probably asked yourself: "What can I do right now to contribute to the well-being of society?" Here are some tips for those who aren't in touch with any volunteer organisations but are eager to do something big and helpful.
There's no doubt that you have some belongings at home that nobody has used for a while. They can be children's clothes or toys, old books, or CDs (we all listen to music online now, don't we)? So, instead of collecting stuff that can be just another piece of rubbish for you, try to donate it to charity organisations. You might also try to ask your neighbours for such things and deliver them to your local NGO helping the homeless or other people in need.
Additionally, your local library or community centre may be able to introduce you to a senior citizen who needs help setting up email, talking to their grandchildren online, or completing a task you think is incredibly simple given that you grew up with technology. Be careful and patient when providing an elderly person with modern and convenient means of communication.
If you enjoy being outdoors, supporting a local garden is a great way to spend time while also meeting new people. Community gardens can vary from flower beds to vegetable gardens to homes for live chickens! Don't have one nearby? Consider starting one on your own!
