Apply to be a School on Wheels tutor today! We need tutors to help homeless students stay in school and get the education they need and deserve.
School on Wheels tutors work with a homeless child for an hour each week to help with homework and other school subjects. As a tutor you will fill in the gaps in a homeless child’s education, and be a positive role model and mentor.
No experience is necessary - we provide training. All you need is a love of learning and a desire to help. Simply visit our website: www.schoolonwheels.org and complete a volunteer application. It will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life!
