Hi,

I am looking to attract students or people looking for an experience in SEO or social media to promote my website. Where can I post the add for free?

Craig’s list and some schools may have boards you can post it to.

basically I filled in applications online for volunteering jobs and im sitll waiting for them to reply back to me. I sent off the applications online on friday.. should I give it until the end of this week and then contact them again?

That is a very short time to give companies an opportunity to review your application.

Give them at least 2 weeks. Remember, those folks are busy with lots of other things to do.

I live on the opposite side of the country and have wanted to go to comic con for like a few years now, when do tickets go on sale? also can i do everything online like volunteer?

If you mean the San Diego comic con

Preregistration has already started, for people that have gone in the past.

You will need to keep watching their website, for the general population tickets . They will go on sale sometime before the end of the year.

Volunteering information is provided on-line, usually when ticket sales start.

- from your house
- without paying/donating money
?

Yup – here’s a list of them!

All free!

I just made a new site 2 days ago and I am looking for some writers and data miners. http://techreviewsandhelp.com/home/about-us/test/jobs/

Since the site is super new and hasn’t made any profit I was wondering where can I find online volunteer writers

On your "about us" page
http://techreviewsandhelp.com/home/about-us/
You need to say that you are NOT a registered charity, that you are NOT a registered business, and that you do not take in any fees or income on the site. You also need to say that volunteering with the site won’t qualify as community service, because it’s not with a registered charity.

Because you are not a registered charity, you can’t use any of the sites that help charities recruit online volunteers. Since the nature of your site is tech, look for tech user groups on yahoogroups, googlegroups, and other online community platforms.

You might let Computer Aid UK know about your effort, and ask if they would let their volunteers know about it:

I’m currently a full time student for premed, so I can’t take a class in the hospital in the mornings. I was wondering if I could take a class online and volunteer at the local hospital for my on hands training skills.
If you have any answers, ideas, anything, it will help. Thank you.

Best to discuss this with your faculty adviser and the hospital personal office..

I’d like to get some journalistic work experience but I know you need to start small, so any sorts of online magazines/newspapers looking for reporters or feature writers etc. would be really useful.

Saw the following that are looking for volunteer writers, writers@magazinesubscription.co.uk

I’m a 17 year old girl looking to volunteer online….I’m great at helping people (coaching….teaching…etc…) as well as I have a basic knowledge of French and Spanish
and obviously english…
I’m an exceptional writer (though perhaps this question would not lead you to believe otherwise)
and I have excellent reading, writing and editing skills.
Do you guys have any ideas as to what i might be able to do ONLINE?
All help is appreciated although I’d ask that anybody with a rhetorical answer… please do not respond
Thanks

Absolutely possible. http://www.volunteermatch.com may have ideas for you as may your local volunteer bureau. One suggestion is that you go to http://www.foundationcenter.org and take their free courses in grant application writing. Almost every nonprofit needs that service and with the skills and interests you have it would be a good match for you. Anything you know or can learn about website design, keeping up a site or blog would be good too. Many nonprofits blog to stay in touch with supporters many others wish they had someone to do it for them. Helping with a news letter (virtual or paper), with press releases, etc is another possibility as is brochure design and updating.

I’m 13 years old. I’m in National Junior Honors Society and need 14 more hours of community service. I’ve looked a lot for opportunities online, but haven’t found anything that a 13 year old could do. I only have four days and would really love to find some online volunteer sites. If you have any other ideas that aren’t online, let me know as well!
thanks c:

You aren’t going to be able to do 14 hours of community service in four days, no matter what your age.

Instead, call every nonprofit theater, nonprofit performing arts center, nonprofit dance studio, etc. on Monday that has a performance this week, or email them, and ask if you could usher at their performances this week. That will get you two hours per performance – which still isn’t 14 hours, but is probably the only way you can sign up to volunteer and actually volunteer in the same week.

Community Service and Volunteering by Teens: How to Find Opportunities

Very detailed information that discusses your many, many options – the usual and many activities you probably never thought of.

I have a group of friends across the world that like to participate in charity drives together. We are currently looking for online websites where we can volunteer as a group. We are already on freerice. Any other websites? It is important that we can participate as a group.

That’s slackervism. It’s not really volunteering — it’s not even really *online* volunteering!

If your group really can’t go onsite anywhere and volunteer together, then at least pick a cause and undertake an online campaign to support it:

Otherwise, here’s advice on volunteering as a group:
