Where can kids that are 10-13 years old volunteer?

I'm setting up this day camp this summer and the kids are 10-13 years of age and the camp is about leadership and being the best citizen you can be.





I've already got them signed up for a day at the food bank, a park cleanup, a day at the hospital where they would entertain the younger ones, and they'll be doing a fundraiser.





Where would they have fun, and do something good at the same time?



Volunteering is difficult when your so young, i was thinking maybe they could volunteer at the SPCA, or some kind of animal shelter where they can play with the animals and help out. You could also research some organizations that need materials and have the kids make them, like baby blankets or stuffed animals for kids in hospitals. i think what your trying to do is really great though.




I think the first answer is a very good idea. Also, try the local 4-H club. Maybe call the boys/girl scouts for some ideas.
