Hi Sarah,\nIn the USA you can find many opportunities in any big city. Get on a bus to take you downtown. It won't be much of a walk until you find a soup kitchen where you can apply your talents. Many homeless people are suffering from mental illness and your gift of reason and skills for personal communication can be a great help to getting them get off the streets.\nPut your education to use, Sarah. Make the world a better place for all of us.\n-Roob

There is a lot of scam going on with people making themselves out to be refugees. In one case, a couple sold the home that a charity had bought for their family and spent the money foolishly and there are other tales worse than that.\n\nSo, I applaud your willingness to evaluate the projects you give to. The Better Business Bureau evaluates national charities and reports if they have scammed people. This is their site, called Wise Giving Alliance:\nhttp://www.give.org/reports/index.asp\n\ns

It depends on where you are.  Check out the library or community center in your area and you may find volunteers who are willing to help you.  Read newspapers and magazines - good places to start.  If you have children, or know children, read to them.  If you don't know any  children see if there is a volunteer program at your library where you can read to kids a couple of times a week - many libraries have a story time.  \n\nAs a previous poster indicated, if you wrote your question yourself, your English sounds pretty good.\n\nBest of luck with it.

No. It's not worth the hassle of going thru the charade.  \nPretending for Immigration is a full time job.  You have to become a professional liar to get and keep your story straight.  Not worth it!
