Default Re: People with the most stuff-filled days (inspired by El D)

skunk,

I've done a lot of "play with kids" type stuff which I really like, primarily at an abused kids home and a homeless family shelter. I've also done some tutoring at both orgs like that and in regular schools (for friends who were teachers). I've done Food Bank work and serving meals at the soup kitchen. Also have done Habitat. Hmmmm, lots of random other things here and there (paint someplace, staff some station at some event, plant some trees, blah blah), but the previous stuff I mentioned was the most rewarding to me. Overall, I like playing with kids who don't have positive male role models in their life to be a really fun and rewarding thing to do.

I have a few friends who have done Big Brother/Big Sister. It takes a level of both regular time commitment and emotional commitment that I either haven't had or haven't been willing to commit. Some of my friends have had incredible experiences and love the program, others have had a very tough time w/ their kids.
