About this Opportunity

Many children at the center are experiencing instability, and a little extra support can make a huge difference in their lives. We're looking for enthusiastic and compassionate volunteers to help with a variety of activities, including:

  • Homework Help: Provide one-on-one or small group assistance with schoolwork, helping children stay on track academically.

  • Reading Buddies: Share the joy of reading and help improve literacy skills.

  • Activity Leaders: Organize and supervise engaging educational games, crafts, and recreational activities.

  • Mentorship: Be a positive role model and offer encouragement and support.

Volunteer Requirements:

  • A passion for working with children.

  • Patience, empathy, and a positive attitude.

  • Ability to commit to a regular schedule (even a few hours a week makes an impact!).
