Have you ever thought you might want to do volunteer work for a week? Or perhaps for a year or two? Not sure where to start? Then check out the Catholic Network of Volunteer Service (CNVS). They publish the RESPONSE Directory that describes volunteer programs offered by over 200 Catholic and Christian member organizations.
The Directory can be searched online, or a hard copy can be ordered for free from CNVS by emailing cnvsinfo@cnvs.org or calling 1-800-543-5046.
CNVS provides a bridge between individual volunteers and the sponsoring organizations. CNVS helps to match individuals with faith-based volunteer opportunities and also provides training and technical assistance resources. Volunteer and lay missionary opportunities exist within the US and also internationally in 108 countries.
Take a look at this great resource. Volunteer work might be a great way to spend your next “vacation,” however long it may be.
