School on Wheels is looking for dedicated people to volunteer tutor a homeless child or teen for one hour a week. The wonderful kids we serve are living in shelters, group homes, motels, and other locations throughout the Inland Empire. Our tutors are the "wheels" by visiting the children where they are at to provide tutoring.
No previous mentoring or teaching experience is required, just a willingness to make a real and lasting difference in a young person's life by helping them academically. And you will be volunteering with a student in an age range that you're comfortable working with for just an hour a week. For more info about School on Wheels and to apply online, please visit our website: http://www.schoolonwheels.org/ Thank you!
