Hey. Does anyone know if there are any places for volunteer work? Its hard trying to find some place to volunteer when i don't have any license or experience.

any ideas?? anyone know anyone? places?
 
Your best bet is to try hospital pharmacy. If you're lucky, you can ask a volunteer coordinator at one of the hospitals and see if they allow volunteers to help out in their inpatient or outpatient pharmacies. One particular hospital in Anaheim was more than happy to have me in there once a week to at least help them get rid of their oral unit dose outdates 😉. In exchange for that I would get to shadow the pharmacists.
