These gigs match one thing about you: out in the world. Every page says what the work pays, what you need before you start, and what is bad about it.
Nobody pays to be listed here and nobody pays to be ranked. Read how we work for the long version.

$5-22.13 an hour
There is no national rate.
You pick up restaurant orders and drive them to people. Grubhub does not publish a national pay rate. It publishes set rates only in Seattle, New York City and California, and you pay for your own gas.
$4 an hour
$4.00 an hour is the rate AmeriCorps uses to build its grant budgets, not a promise to any one volunteer.
You spend a few hours a week helping an older adult or a child one to one. If your income is low enough, you get a small tax-free stipend. It is budgeted at $4 an hour and does not count against other benefits.
$75-300 a day
For one election day.
You help run a polling place for one long day. Pay is set by your state or county, not by any national rule. In the places we checked it ran from $75 to $300 for the day.
$7.25-20 an hour
The highest of three things: the federal minimum wage, your state or local minimum wage, or what the same employer pays others for similar public work.
SCSEP is a federal program for people 55 and over with a low income. You work about 20 hours a week at a school, senior center or other local place. You get paid at least the minimum wage where you live.
