Hello Meg. I got a job when I was 15 and have had many friends who have worked at a younger age, so perhaps I can provide a few ideas. Connections are always one good way to find work (through family or friends). Also, places that always seem to be hiring teenagers are grocery stores, the food industry (fast food places) and retail stores (such as places in the mall). Another place you could try include day camps. Also, you could run your own business, such as for lawn care, snow removal or tutoring. These could be good, as you can work your school schedule around them. Good luck finding a job!

Disney? No, just kidding. Check out the link for contact info on some local charities. \n\nYou can also come up with your own way to volunteer... help and elderly neighbor run errands, pick up trash on the side of the street. And, most schools have a Special Olympics that young people can volunteer to help out with. That's one that is on the link. Also check your yellow pages under charities.\n\nIf you'd like more info, do a search for "Kissimmee Local Charities."

There are always things you can do to volunteer. Nursing homes, schools (children need mentors), neighborhood, local businesses.\n\nThere are always people out there somewhere that need a helping hand of some kind. \n\nIt is really up to you and what you want to do, isn't it?

If you have a degree in a related field then just do a google search for youth work social work in London.  When I did the first site that came up was:  http://www.workgateways.com/Social+Work+(Qualified).Youth.Jobs   If not then I suggest you volunteer at a local youth center so you can gain experience.

Check this website. www.vso.org.uk . If you have the right skills and ambition, they are more than happy to consider you. It is a very rewarding volunteering experience and you get paid money enough to live on and given accomodation in the place you are assigned. Give them a ring or email them.

I'm sure that some charity or political campaign would love to have you volunteer.  Try it.  Since I don't know London that well, (I was there for a week, years ago) I can't help you further.\n\nSo, pick your favorite cause and as them if they will take you on.

First you need to pick a part of the world you want to go to.  Then try searching in Google for "volunteer NGO ___" the blank being where you want to work.  You'll soon have way too many options to choose from (you might also want to decide what kind of a project you want to work on - i.e. education, health, family planning, etc.)\n\nidealist.org is one of the biggest sites for this kind of thing.  A quick Google search would bring up dozens of others.

Plenty but you are in the wrong section!\n\nTravel agents won't be any help.  You need to look at the online jobs sections in newspapers of the countries you want to work in.\n\nUse your local library and Google to find the information you need.

Contact your local park and rec district - they often have a teen job line or listings. Also, sometimes the local adult schools and colleges have listings for job that teens can do.\n\nGood luck.

There are few opportunities out there for minors, especially on the web. Your best bet is to look at the "jobs" or "careers" link on any of the pages you visit (even Google or Yahoo) and see if anything fits your criteria.
