Volunteer: Children's Program

Volunteer Presenters for Creative and Life Skills Sessions
We are looking for volunteers who enjoy engaging with youth in meaningful, imaginative, and authentic ways. Presenters will work with either the 6–12 age group or the 13–18 age group, and they can choose to stay with one group or rotate between both.

These volunteers should feel comfortable tapping into their playful and creative side. The children come to our program right after school, so it’s important that the sessions do not feel like more classroom time. Presenters should design activities that are fun, expressive, relatable, and relevant to what the children are experiencing in their lives, especially as many of them are navigating the challenges of transitional housing.

The goal is to create a safe and inspiring space where children can open up, connect with one another, and explore new ideas and skills that help them imagine possibilities beyond their current circumstances. I am absolutely happy to support volunteers as they get comfortable, but it is important that they bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a genuine willingness to engage with the youth.

Weekly Program Volunteers for Thursday Evenings
We also need volunteers who can support our program consistently on Thursdays from 7:00 to 8:30 PM. These volunteers will assist the presenter for the evening, help guide and encourage the children, and support the overall flow of the classroom.

Volunteers may participate every Thursday or twice a month based on their schedule, and can work with the 6–12 group, the 13–18 group, or both.

Volunteer: Tutors

We are looking for volunteer tutors who can support our children and teens (ages 6–18) in subjects like math, reading, and general homework help. Tutors will be placed on a list and may be scheduled 1–2 times per week based on the needs of our program families.

Tutoring sessions will take place in public locations such as the library or Barnes & Noble, where families can comfortably meet. A background check will be required to ensure the safety of our youth and families.

If you enjoy helping young people build confidence in their academic skills and want to make a meaningful impact, we’d love to hear from you.
