Want to make a difference? Volunteer at the Fall Festival at Grant Avenue Elementary School with Change For Kids! Volunteers are needed to help make the Fall Festival fantastic for students and their families. This will mean helping with activities, running booths, and setting up. A fun and spooky time for everyone!
Grant Avenue is one of Change For Kids' partner schools. www.changeforkids.org
As Change for Kids is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion - of thought, perspective, and demographics, among other areas - we are simultaneously committed to exposing young scholars to adults who are reflective of their communities. To that end, we encourage volunteers of color, women, minority groups, and other less-represented demographic groups. At CFK, we believe that children cannot dream of what they have not seen, and we want them not only to see their potential futures, but to see themselves reflected in the eyes of their adult mentors. If you would like assistance in recruiting diverse volunteers from your workplace, house of worship, or any other community groups that you belong to, don't hesitate to reach out - we'd love to help!

About Change for Kids
Location:

Mission Statement
Change for Kids (CFK) provides critical supports, experiences, and access so kids in New York City public schools can reimagine their possibilities and overcome inequity. We believe opportunities create options. We believe that one can’t dream what one has not seen. We believe creating opportunities for young people allows them to see themselves with different options, through different lenses. And this affords them the tools to reimagine their own possibilities and the tools with which to overcome inequity.
Description
The Change for Kids community works together to allow young people to see themselves in the future with unlimited options. CFK School Managers, in partnership with principals, teachers, and CFK leadership, identify the needs of each CFK partner school.
Change for Kids partners with 13 schools across the five boroughs reaching almost 5,000 students. We provide and manage a mix of resources, including leadership support for principals, teachers, parents, and other school leaders; academic enrichment and engagement programs; volunteers; corporate sponsors; school community support; custom CFK programming designed to fill the gaps identified by our partner schools; and meaningful volunteer opportunities for individuals, public and private organizations, and college/university students.
