I'm a full time volunteer until June, living on a hunger-inducingly small stipend.

In the past I have done a quite a lot of volunteering, but now I don't have the time to commit to anything. I am hoping to help out occasionally with a club for disabled young adults, but I'm not sure if that is going to run. I would like to do more, but no time.

I use to volunteer quite a bit before I was a mum, now I don't have time for it unless it's a one time thing. If I'm going to work with any regularity, it has to be paid.

It's a wonderful thing to do if you have the time. You give back to your community, support an issue you care about and it looks great on a resume. Just because it's not paid, doesn't mean it's not work. :-) Especially if it's a long term or repeat volunteer placement.
