Drop-in volunteer possibilites

I need ideas for drop-in volunteer possibilities. Places that if I have some free time, I can just show up and help and don’t need to commit to a particular day or time in the future.

The biggest problem with places that use volunteers is that they need some kind of way to schedule them so they have everything covered. I am about to go into a situation that I won’t know if I have free time until the morning of the free day.

I am thinking that the library might appreciate someone that would come in an shelve books.
Food kitchens, for homeless shelters and delivery to home bound people, could use some prep cook help.
A local animal shelter may be interested in drop in help to socialize the cats and walk dogs.

I still need to research and contact these places and see if it is possible.

I was wondering if anyone else had ideas of other things/places to look into.

(time is a little tight so I can’t do a full Gina-verse update right now, but I wanted to get this out there to collect as many ideas as possible as soon as possible.)

      A very good resource and one I plan on digging through often. But, most of their things are commit to type of things, not things that can be dropped in at the last minute. There are some, but that takes a lot of digging.
