You won’t be doing that. Sorry. If you want to volunteer, you are going to have to apply, let the organization interview you, and even undergo a reference check and criminal background check, depending on what the volunteering activity will be. Organizations don’t take just anyone as a volunteer – they want to ensure quality in their programs.

If you have an RV, you can apply to be a camp host at national parks and state parks. The aforementioned web site has information. Some shelters have a need for live-in facility managers, however, these are paid positions, not volunteer positions.
