Specifically ones that need people to do stuff.

The last few non profits I've tried to volunteer for went on and on inviting me to meetings and then eventually told me that they had nothing for me to do after going to board meetings and other things.

Things I know that may be useful:
Computer Junk
Event Planning
Some bike repair but in all honestly not much
Also, regular human stuff

Anyways, if there's any good suggestions let me know.

If you like to play with dirt we're always looking for more trailworkers at Theodore Wirth.

Cycles for Change (previously Sibley Bike Depot) is looking for help in lots of specific tasks.

Mr. Michael Recycles Bicycles always needs mechanics. Beer is provided. However, there are a few other tasks that we need help with if anyone is so inclined. These include cleaning the shop, building some shelves in our bathroom (materials and tools are all provided), sorting and stocking used parts, tearing apart bicycles, working with us at community recycling events, and someone to clean out our front window and create a great looking display. We are not a non-profit - we are a business, but we run the place on a break-even basis, no one receives a salary (but there is BEER) and the primary goal is to give away bicycles to people who need them.
