Volunteer atheist organizations... I want to start one

Something I've always hoped to do and hope to do in the future is start a volunteer atheist organization. (ie environmental cleanup, feeding the homeless, clothing drive, etc)

I was stunned to find recently that on my way into work, in fact within 2 miles of my work the following sign was on the side of the road:

What a good sign! (double entendre intended)

You can adopt a highway here: http://www.adoptahighway.com

Anyone involved in other atheist volunteer organizations? Know of any other atheist volunteer organizations?

In Philadelphia, the FSGP has a Helping Hands committee, which sure could use a volunteer with your drive! http://fsgp.org/helpinghands.html

I'd join if you started one.

You're in California and Sapient is in Philadelphia PA. If you're looking for a national atheist organization to support, please consider the Freedom From Religion Foundation: http://www.ffrf.org. FFRF files (and wins) church-state separation lawsuits, and is the parent organization of many atheist group chapters nationwide (including the Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia, http://www.fsgp.org).
