I did some volunteer work at this bad-ass animal sanctuary in Green Bay a few years ago. I'd do it again if I still lived up there.

This wasn't a shelter really. They had a pack of Timber Wolves, Mountain Lions, Owls, Eagles, Hawks, fish, abondoned animals, all sorts of awesome critters Was really fucking sweet!
I got to enter all the raptor and owl cages and feed them their mice or chickens. Was face to face with about 24 different owls a good chunk of the day.

I just made a huge difference in a child's life today,possibly a super-positive life altering change,with a simple compliment. Am I the only one?

In the late Cretaceous period, the first Cannabis species appear, and soon after, all the non-bird dinosaurs disappeared. Obviously, marihuana killed the dinosaurs. That giant meteor that smacked the yucatan peninsula right afterwards, coincidence.

No, I don't volunteer.
Also if I had to go to a Boys and Girls club as a child I would have been pissed.

This wasn't volunteer work.This was an average ordinary everyday situation where a little girl was made fun of,or a sensitive young man was picked on,and some random stranger was there to step up and make a difference in someones' life. Too much trouble for you,fine. I'll take up your slack.

You mean like community service? That's for drunks and wife beaters, not decent folk like us.

I was obviously responding to the OP, you were just the last one to reply and I didn't bother to change who I was replying to.
I'd be pissed if I was one of the people you helped as well. That means I got shit on and you need to make me feel better.
At this point in my life I got too many of my own problems to volunteer.

I was actually considering doing some volunteer work when I got my license back, I kind of expected to get community service for my probation but I never did.
Plus it will look good ti my PO/judge so it's a win win

I volunteered with a place called A Child's Place before. It helped out homeless children in the classroom
I've also done some random volunteer gigs to help out kid's with disabilities and such

I frequently take personal hygiene items to the troubled teens home that's in my city. I use coupons a lot at the store and I'm always finding some ridiculous deal where I'm getting things for free or dirt cheap, but who really needs 20 containers of toothpaste.
I would love to volunteer walking dogs or helping out at the shelters, but i honestly think I would commit suicide eventually because I can't handle seeing animals in cages, sad and shit.
fucking aye just typing that made my eyes tear up.
