We all know “many hands make light work.” Maybe you’ve thought about volunteering at school, but weren’t sure what you can do? Great news! We LOVE our volunteers, so we have many opportunities to fit every schedule and every skillset. Read more about them out on our Volunteer page.

And the benefits to your child may be surprising! Not only are they able to spend extra special time with you, according to this article, research has shown that “volunteering at (our) children’s schools… yields broader benefits for students than previously believed. These range from higher student grades and test scores to more positive peer relationships in middle school and lower rates of depression in high school.” Wow.
