Volunteering is a great way for children to learn responsibility and the importance of helping others. Here are a few websites to help you and your child get started. I'm a firm believer in getting young ones started early, many will continue on their own later in life.
1) VolunteerMatch.org - This site features thousands of searchable volunteer opportunities for kids. They have onsite schedule and management tools as well!
2) KidsCare.org - I love the step-by-step guide to various service projects for kids and the abundance of additional resources.
3) TheVolunteerFamily.org - These folks specialize in matching your family with a volunteering opportunity or helps you create a custom, individual opportunity. This site covers the U.S.
4) FirstGiving.com - Here you can create an online fundraising page to raise money for any U.S. non-profit.
5) PajamaProgram.org - Offers kids ideas on how to help collect new pajamas and books for kids in need. There are also tools available to teachers and parents to help organize fundraisers, etc.
