Volunteers needed to help supervise at Summer Camp for Kids!
ORGANIZATION: IMPACTO
Please visit the new page to apply.
IMPACTO is a nonprofit after-school organization, located in the Boyle Heights community of East Los Angeles that serves 180 children K-12. During the summer however, we become a full day program for kids (kind of like a summer camp)! We run the program every day from 8:30am-4:00pm. We are looking for optimistic and enthusiastic volunteers who can offer their time this summer from either 9:00am-12:45pm or 12:15pm-3:30pm Monday-Friday. Volunteers should be people who are genuinely looking to make a positive change in a child's life. We are looking for volunteers to help with lesson plans, recess time, meals, and essentially just help us keep an eye on the kids! This is a rewarding experience in which you pass on your various passions to children!
We are in great need of volunteers to come help us in the afternoon to be an extra set of eyes with our kids during our lunch hour as well as helpful hands to assist in cleaning! Though our greatest need is during our lunch hour, if you would like to volunteer with one of our classes before and/or after lunch, we would love to have you!
