Esperanza Community Services is seeking volunteers who have special skills and interests and are willing to donate their time to our participants. Esperanza is a nonprofit dedicated to serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Chicago. We are looking for community members to teach our participants and students new skills such as music, yoga, art, etc. or to put on short performances showcasing their skills. The time commitment is flexible and we are willing to accommodate each volunteer's needs! These volunteer opportunities provide our participants the opportunity to explore new hobbies, learn new things and engage with the Chicago community.
