365 volunteer hours in 1 year!

I moved to Halifax from Toronto exactly a week ago. This means I am in a brand new place, no job, no obligations with an essentially blank slate.

The plan: use this year to volunteer as much as possible (target goal 365 hours) , in as many different venues as possible, doing as many different things as possible.

Past experiences in volunteering:

- one overnight shift on a Montreal soup kitchen on wheels serving hot dogs to the homeless

- dictating textbooks and articles on tape for blind students during university

- a few shifts at Habitat for Humanity hammering
nails, building walls and generally getting dirty
