Virtual Volunteers

You could feel it coming. You can now volunteer for faith-based ministry from home via your computer.

Just hop over to ChristianVolunteering.org.

Sure, they have long lists of all the usual volunteer activities that require your presence. But presence is so 20th century . . .How about virtual volunteering?

Now you can do online marketing for a children's home in Nairobi, work as a remote artist/illustrator for an evangelistic ministry in Texas, a grant writer for a homelessness project in Arkansas, or help a rescue mission raise funds by persuading people to donate their old junker cars in exchange for a tax write-off. And all without leaving your home office. Or your blog.
