Just a quick question here folks.

Does anyone know of any ways I can get involved in some type of volunteer work or community service? I live in Ibaraki, and would like to do something on the weekends near Tokyo or Tsuchiura. If you have any info, it would be much appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

Ask city hall or your ward office. There may be an English-speaking CIR working there that could explain things better.

Join a church or community center. See what the local information office has to say.

Community service...?

I thought that was something a judge gave out as a form of punishment Laughing

Check out Willing Workers on Organic Farms (WWOOF) in Japan. http://www.wwoofjapan.com/main/

Are you close to Tsukuba City? http://tsukubainfo.jp/Main/Volunteers

I hope you find a good fit for your talents and energy.
