Go to yahoo and search on volunteering, (your city). There’s a couple volunteer websites in my area that has lots of opportunities on them. Maybe your city does too.

Call 211; they are the experts in non profits in your area. They know who needs volunteers. I hope that once you start volunteering you see why it is important and not just a way to pad your application. Hope this helps.
i see your in nevada,well i agree with the first answere and its probely the safest and most benificaial for you.be carefull of the atachments by you to others and others to you and the dependancies developed if asigned to personal individuals.i,ve some what helped people before some what volenteer so to speak and they became dependent and demanding and stalked me.be awhere as what you are doing and what it means to help some times you end up needing help.some people become dependant and i delt with others as if they helped you in some way and you used them.look at what type of volenteer status on an aplication would be heplfull and look good.as the first answere said there are things on the web but you can speak with a career counsler at school for advice and the courts and hospitols.
