Hey guys,

I'm brand new to the D.C. metro area and would like to know of volunteer opportunities. I was wondering if anyone knew of any websites which list volunteer opportunities. Also do you guys have any recommendations of any particular government or nonprofit organization(s)?

Preferably, I would like to volunteer in southern Maryland (Charles County, PG County) where i'm currently located. Also, I would like to find some organizations in the District of Columbia itself.

Specifically the type of nonprofit organizations I'm looking for are ones which deal with community issues/problems. I'm not necessarily looking to volunteer at any nonprofit dealing with things like saving the polar bears, or promoting the arts (even though some people may feel that polar bears and the lack of the arts are community problems).

Thanks in advance for any responses you guys can give.
