How do I claim volunteer miles when I travel 6 to 7 miles a day for several organizations. 200 to 300 days a year.

Start your own topic in the proper area and explain exactly what it is you are trying to do and with what program/website/etc.

First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.
You claim this under Schedule D if its qualified.

You can claim mileage in support of charitable organizations as a charitable donation on Form 1040 schedule A. The IRS lets you deduct at a rate of $0.14/mile (note that this is a different rate than what you can deduct for moving or business expenses). Be sure to keep good records of mileage in case you are audited.
