Anyone here do volunteer work?

I think I would really enjoy helping disadvantaged children. So I think tomorrow I will start being serious about finding my cause😉

Anyone here do anything like that? Care to share?

TIA boys!

I do more than my share of volunteer work, but it's all in accordance with my LEO status.

I've done volunteer work, and while I know children need assistance and what not; I find the most rewarding work is helping out in local "soup kitchens." You will meet some of the most talented/smart/gracious people ever IMO 🙂

i've been working with a group called I Have a Dream for the past year and a half...the youth are not really 'disadvantaged', but most of the kids have been labeled at-risk

i specifically work with high school aged students, tutoring them, working on homework, and just hanging out with them. it's actually a lot of fun, and i find myself looking forward to it every week

You dont count silly because of your position. All law officers do volunteer work, whether or not they are on active patrol.
I am not an officer of course, but I can imagine what you guys deal with and go through everyday. Surely some of it is straight up volunteering your time and effort🙂

You know I love ya Big B :thumbsup:

Lies!...all LIES! 😛

I am not helpful around here at all. I see myself as the girl who watches th e game with an occasional shout out, comment, and once in a great while, a great thread🙂

I could mention that with the FOP I helped take underprivileged kids out Christmas shopping and then we had a pizza party and wrapped the presents for them. There might be something like that you could help out with.

I found it to be very rewarding on a personal level. 🙂

I've already decided that when I retire I'm going to feed sick people in a hospital or nursing home. It breaks my heart to see pts who are really hungry but no one has taken the time to feed them.

I was a scout leader for a few years. Now I just take care of my own kids. The wife volunteers at her church though. It's about all the work she can handle.
