America SCORES Bay Area is a nonprofit out-of-school-time program focused on historically excluded and low-income youth that offers a "magic mix" of soccer, poetry, and community service activities in a youth development model that promotes our core values of Leadership, Teamwork, Good Sportsmanship, and Commitment.
SCORES empowers its "poet-athletes" to lead healthy lifestyles, be engaged and collaborative students, and have the confidence and character to make a difference in the world. We wholeheartedly believe all kids should experience joy and a sense of belonging and be well-prepared to command their future.
We believe in a Bay Area rich with meaningful opportunities for all children: teams and turf to play on, outlets for creative and physical expression, and pathways to develop their voices.
We appreciate your time and energy in bettering the lives of our youth and community!
We are looking for many different types of volunteers. Volunteering shifts can be made to work with your schedule! Volunteering is FUN!
Skilled video photographers and editors - We need help capturing content for impact storytelling. You should have your own equipment - video and audio. Will collaborate with staff to complete projects. Staff will coordinate schedules and perform scripting and interviewing. With your help, we will cover community events, profile remarkable individuals, and produce longer-form storytelling.
Game Day volunteers - This can include setup, breakdown, book zone, snacks, referees, etc. Game days are either Friday afternoons at SF Civic Center OR Saturdays at Crocker Amazon-SF; Oakland, San Rafael (Saturday times are usually morning to lunchtime - TBD).
Poetry Slams - We need volunteers, including judges, for our regional spring poetry events.
Soccer Coaches - We need head and assistant coaches for our Independent Football Club. Practice days vary. Games are usually on the weekends.
Event volunteers - We have fundraising events like our Corporate Cup Charity Soccer Tournament on Sat., June 1, 2024, at Beach Chalet Soccer Fields; Annual Poetry Event - Rising Voices (October); Friendship Cup Soccer Tournament (December), plus. We need help with setup, breakdown, registration, and information plus.
