Description

Infinite Family gives you the opportunity to make your day of service last a whole year! With a 1/2 hour a week, you can mentor a child in South Africa through the magic of video conferencing and the internet.

The National Day of Service honors the ideals and values of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.. Our nation sets aside Dr. King's birthday (January 19 th) to honor his memory through direct community service. Honor Dr. King's memory by becoming a mentor through Infinite Family! With little more than your own computer, a webcam and one half hour a week, you can be on your way to being a positive light in the life of a South African child.

Infinite Family invites you to a demonstration of how video conferencing works on our secure internet platform. Make your reservation today, so that you can log on January 19, at noon or 5pm EST, to get a glimpse of the kids and learn how easy it is to mentor a child in South Africa.

Extend your day of service by using a 1/2 hour a week to make a positive impact on an orphaned, vulnerable, child's life. To a child with few, if any, adult role models your life becomes a treasure trove of invaluable information. Even the simplest piece of advice can be a guiding light.

RSVP to info@infinitefamily.org to sign up for Infinite Family's Day of Service demonstration!
