Where are you located? Also, what does she like to do? Does she want to work with kids, the elderly, sports, animals? You can search for teen opportunities here: VolunteerMatch - Where Volunteering Begins
But if you give us some more information, then we might also be able to direct you to organizations that would align with her interests.

When I was in high school, I was a member of the Key club. I don't 100% know that they have them in your area, but they do have a North Carolina website:

Key club is mostly over the school year and not a regular thing over the summer like the OP is looking for.

My son (14 1/2) will be volunteering at the local Y over the summer. He is going to help out with the summer camp. Maybe you can check at your local Y?

Animal shelters are always looking for help if she likes animals.

Default Volunteer ideas for teen

public library (friend's son MS volunteers here)
senior citizen/nursing homes helping with activities
your church's summer camp (if they have one) or vacation bible school
food bank (you may have to be there too) has children's/youth volunteer days
community gardens are often looking for people to help weed/tend
youth work camps (some church groups get together and have groups of teenagers working together locally for a week (usu) as summer mission experience on projects to help less fortunate)

Do hospitals still have people who bring around magazine carts/books?
