What are good volunteering programs in Michigan, perferably ones with animals or children? [I am only 16, too]


Answers:
Your volunteer center can help you find specific community projects and non-profit agencies in your local area to help you make an impact in your community. They can direct you to specific projects and agencies that match your interests. Many volunteer centers also have specific youth programs.

Here are some links to help you get started:

Good luck!
Try the humane society, although they aren't accepting applications again until Sept. this year.

They are always looking for people that can foster animals though.

The local hospitals around Michigan might accept 16 year olds, you would have to find out. And you would have to have a background/police check run before you start:
