42. COMBINE THE POWER OF THE INTERNET WITH YOUR OWN GOFUNDME PAGE

You don’t need to wait for the perfect virtual volunteer work opening to present
itself. If there is a cause you care about, create a GoFundMe page for it, and
start promoting.

Pro tip:

While many charities use walks, runs, and live events to fundraise, you can
tweak this idea and go digital. That could mean livestreaming a free class,
workshop, or dance party from your living room, hosting a free challenge on
social media, or something else.

For example, my friends Alex and Ian started the @Meditation4Medicine Instagram
account to raise money for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for NYC
hospitals. To help raise money, they lead free yoga classes on Instagram Live
and ask people to donate to help the cause.





43. ADVOCATE ON SOCIAL MEDIA

If you’re looking for easy ways to volunteer from home, simply raising awareness
about an issue and sharing positive action steps on social media can help create
change.

For example, the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America asks virtual
volunteers to post on their social media accounts tagging their association,
using the hashtag #MultipleSclerosis, and encouraging people to visit their
website. They also provide sample messaging:

“#MultipleSclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system with varying
symptoms. Learn more about MS & @MSAssociation: http://MyMSAA.org.”


44. ASK TO GET INVOLVED WITH WORK FROM HOME VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Keep in mind that if there is a cause you’re passionate about or a charitable
organization that you want to support you can always reach out to them to see if
your talents might be a fit.



Just because a specific project isn’t listed doesn’t mean your gifts wouldn’t be
of use.


45. BECOME A VIRTUAL SCIENTIST AND HELP MOVE RESEARCH FORWARD

Through Zooniverse, anyone can be a researcher and make a real difference.

They post research projects, which you can decide to take part in. For instance,
right now they’re looking for volunteers to help discover why people become
resistant to antibiotics.





46. HELP MAKE DATA ACCESSIBLE

As a part of the Smithsonian Digital Volunteers program, you help make
historical documents and biodiversity data more publicly accessible.

Transcribe and review important works like diaries, ledgers, manuscripts, and
more.


47. TAKE TESTS TO ADD IMPORTANT DATA TO HARVARD STUDIES

Harvard’s Project Implicit features 90+ assessment tests that give you insight
into your conscious and unconscious inclinations.

Along with being an interesting look into your own mind, you’ll also be
assisting Harvard researchers with psychological studies by adding to their
data.


48. MENTOR WOMEN IN BUSINESS

Through the Cherie Blair Foundation For Women, you can apply to volunteer
through an Online Mentors Program, helping women become successful entrepreneurs
to take their future into their own hands.

If accepted, you’ll be matched with a mentee whom you’ll meet virtually for two
hours each month for one year. Their program also includes training for both
parties!





49. VOLUNTEER BY SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

Many people use Wikipedia to get information, so if you have information to
share, you might consider creating a page as a virtual volunteer.

Remember, knowledge is power.


50. HELP SOLVE REAL-WORLD PROBLEMS VOLUNTEERING FROM YOUR COUCH

DoSomething.org is passionate about creating positive social change in the
world. Many of their online volunteer opportunities take just a few minutes to
do, too.

for managing stress, swapping stories with adult seniors, creating cards to
remind your father to get his blood pressure checked, and making fun five-minute
playlists to help friends take shorter showers.


51. WRITE TO HELP PEOPLE WITH DEPRESSION

Through Letters Against Depression, you can write letters to those needing
support.

On their website, you’ll find a list of current needs mainly focused on writing
upbeat handwritten letters to those battling depression and mental illness.





52. SUPPORT DISASTER EFFORTS USING DIGITAL SKILLS

Through the American Red Cross, an organization that helps people and
communities during times of disaster and crisis, you can become a Digital
Advocate.

This entails volunteering to work on projects related to marketing, data
reporting, IT services, and more.


53. HELP OTHERS DISCOVER THEIR ROOTS

Do you have a passion for genealogy? Volunteers can use that to help others
discover their own roots through Ancestry.com’s free World Archives Program
(AWAP), a free public database. As a volunteer, you’ll be provided images and
documents to transcribe for the database.

    Thank you so much for these suggestions; I was in a pinch for some volunteer

    This is a great list and very helpful! I have a nephew looking to get more
    volunteer hours for CCD requirements, and this list is excellent! I would
    also recommend Color A Smile. It’s great for people of all ages, and they
    have a form you can fill out to validate volunteer hours by simply
    downloading and coloring drawings. I believe you mail it back to them, and
    they send the pictures to senior citizens in nursing homes.

    You could add abrightspot.org to your list. You make and write out uplifting
    greeting cards from home and then send it to them- they make the best match
    and it goes to people who need a boost. Maybe a senior alone in a home, a
    child in the hospital or a teen feeling the world isn’t a place to be.
    Help make a difference in someones mental health all form home.
