 Ready...

 Are you ready to begin your volunteering experience? There are a few 
 things you need to keep in mind when beginning your hunt for the  
 perfect volunteer position:

• What are the needs in your community?

• Who or what do you want to help?

• What can you do?

 Set...

 about the logistics of your volunteer position. Ask yourself the following 
 questions:

 would fit your volunteer needs, check out our Opportunities page and
