- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Berkshire Children and Families is embarking on an agency-wide effort to grow its volunteer program. There are many opportunities to be of service, including becoming a mentor for at-risk youth, advocating for children in the juvenile court system in cases of abuse and neglect (CASA), mentoring young parents, reading to children, tutoring, sorting donations and childcare for parents in groups. No experience needed - just the desire to make a difference in your community. Commitments range from one-day activities to 18 months. We will find the right fit for you!
Come to an informational session at our Family Resource Center at 480 West Street, Pittsfield on Thursday, August 24th at either 9am-10am or 6pm-7pm to find out more. Please RSVP to Paula Buxbaum (pbuxbaum@berkshirechildren.org) by no later than Wednesday, August 23rd. We look forward to meeting you!
