    You're both, so answer your own question... what do YOU do?

    And, I'll be nice and answer: I'm in the Junior League on the board of the Make A Wish committee as a wish granter.

    TBH I don't volunteer anywhere. I have my kids, my oldest child's school functions, and then my school work myself. My H is OOT with his civi job every day of the week (few weekends off a month if that). I don't have time. Tongue Tied

    In the community, nothing right now. I work 12 hour days and go to school at night. But at work, right now I'm sponsoring a junior enlisted who is going to the Soldier of the Year board, since I'm going for NCO of the Year.  I also am mentoring a freshly promoted E-5(who is clueless) in our Headquarters.

    Shelly, why don't you ever reply to your own questions?

    Because she already knows what SHE does.  She's the one that matters. Duuuhhh.

    I volunteered to get my butt kicked and possibly shot at while working in the most hated MOS in the Army for 8 years.  J is a lifer who is gone 30+ weeks out of every year.  Outside of volunteering at our kids' school, we foster rescue pups.  I was the volunteer foster coordinator for the rescue, but 40+ hours a week is way too much for me to be volunteering.

    For a "high demand MOS" she sure is on TB a lot.

    I volunteer at the special olympics every year. I started in tech school and after I went operational, I try to volunteer twice a year. Mostly for the spring and winter events.

    I'm part of MTA, so I volunteer whenever organizations on base need me.  I do most of my volunteer work at the base schools, but I throw in some blood drives and fundraisers for good measure.
