If you enjoy helping children succeed academically, or socializing with seniors, then we are the right place for you! We are looking for a few good people to provide mentoring/tutoring to K-12 youth (in supervised settings) AND a few good people who love socializing with others and enjoy the rewards of helping seniors remain independent.
Our programs are part of the Senior Corps network of the Corporation for National and Community Services. Volunteers for these programs must be 55 years and older.
