We are looking for volunteers that can help 1-2 days a week this summer with our kids summer programs!
Our kids, grades K-8, continue to learn even after school is out for the summer. Our staff and volunteers make sure our kids have the best chance at success!
Volunteers will help staff with summer activities Monday-Thursday between 10am and 2pm in June and July. Games, crafts, field trips, reading, and fun is on the schedule for the summer months and we want you to be a part of it!
This would be a great opportunity for high school and college students looking for volunteer hours over the summer, but if you have a flexible schedule during the summer months, we would love to have your help!
Contact Ellen (eking@phoenixfamily.org) for more information. Thanks!

Mission Statement
Phoenix Family empowers people living in low-income housing communities with the on-site support they need to gain stability and achieve self-sufficiency.
Description
A stable, safe home holds enormous possibilities for a low-income family striving to chart a more secure and hopeful future. With an average household income of just $11,743, Phoenix Family’s residents are often just one crisis away from becoming homeless. And, like millions of low-income individuals across the United States, they need more than housing to build personal and financial assets and overcome barriers to success - they also require services where they live.
Volunteers are vital in helping Phoenix Family reach our mission of helping people and changing lives. Last year, we received support from more than 350 volunteers, but even this is not enough to meet all the needs in our community. Whether you are looking for a seasonal or regular opportunity as an individual or a group, Phoenix Family offers a variety of volunteer opportunities to help our community.
Phoenix Family’s Youth Development, Families First and Senior Empowerment Programs provide those critical on-site services that help residents learn skills and gain perspectives that keep dreams of stability and hope realities for the future.
Phoenix Family’s staff and programs rely on trust, rapport, choice and convenience to engage residents in services. All services delivered are culturally appropriate and based on the desired outcomes of residents, including increased disposable income, increased educational levels, improved health, and strengthened social networks.
