COSI is excited to launch our new Learning Lunchbox Program in partnership with Franklin County community partners. Our Learning Lunchboxes are topic specific science kits delivered to local non profits in Central Ohio and distributed to children in need. We are currently looking for pre-formed groups to come in and help assemble kits before they are delivered to local charities on any days and during any times of the week. Social distancing and safety measures are currently taking place. Please contact Molly Seguin, Director of Volunteer Experience's today at mseguin@cosi.org to book your group and review COSI's safety plan
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
