Most days I sort of feel like I’m empty and I’m not really sure what to do about it. I want to be better and hopefully find some sense of direction, motivation, or fulfillment. I could definitely use some advice and help, please and thank you!

    Find some organizations you’d be interested in volunteering with and pull up their websites to find out what they need. Some will list it on their websites, but for others you might have to send an email or submit an application first. Yes, some organizations will ask their volunteers for a minimum commitment since training takes effort, but others will have opportunities for you to commit one day at a time.

    A friend of mine volunteers at a local food bank and also a tiny home building group, and just signs up for random shifts here & there when their availability matches the scheduling needs. Me personally, I’ve been volunteering to foster cats for years now. The organization I’m with also needs volunteers for a variety of administrative roles, driving/transportation, and trapping (TNR). There’s another group I’ve been meaning to check out that just does some park maintenance once a month, and their info page says “no RSVP necessary”, so you can just show up.
