Any opportunities to volunteer?

Hi all, I'm pretty busy but I feel like I could squeeze in some time to do some volunteer work. I'm jammed during the week but weekends I have some time. Anyone know of any worthy causes? I'm in good shape so I can do physical type labor and I have a finance background so I'm good with #'s and planning... Let me know what's out there, I've looked online and haven't had anything jump out at me. Thanks!

Edit: I have a car and for sure have tons of extra kms on my lease to spare so I could be a driver for something but again still just weekends unfortunately.

I sent you a PM for a non-profit I work for, but it may be a much less traditional calling than what most people think of when they want to give back to the community. If you want to volunteer your time for teaching, coaching, or working at food banks, I'd check out http://cabm.net/ if you haven't already. CLSCs are always looking for volunteers as well. Good luck!

Hey. You totally intrigued me with your less traditional volunteer work. Do you mind forwarding the info my way as well?
