Help a local lady learn about the modern workplace or volunteer location. Share your talents and skills with someone new!
A local musician who is getting ready to launch a one-drop track of inspirational, Caribbean vibe style music is in need of a reader to assist with on-screen dialogue boxes that pop up. If you know that a Korg is not a fancy puppy, this is a good opportunity for you to spend time with a local musician who arranges and edits his own music. He thinks about an hour or 2 per week is all he needs for assistance.
Requirements to be a great volunteer include:
a desire to help others;
a pleasant demeanor;
a good reading/speaking voice;
average reading skills;
organizational or planning abilities;
a good driving record;
a clear criminal history;
