Children Across America, a 501c3 children's educational non profit located in Milford, MA, is looking for a volunteer coordinator to help us keep our volunteers organized and kept up to date on our volunteer needs. Volunteers allow us to keep our services free to underserved kids. All of our kids are first generation Americans and minorities who do not have access to the same resources other kids have. We are trying to even the playing field and give these kids the same opportunity at a great education and a successful life. We call it Educational Equity. We also have our Girls Love to Code Club which is for young girls 4-9 that want to learn to block code, program and build VEX robotics. These girls increase their reading and math skills 3 fold on average by participating.
You will work with the Operations Director and keep a database of all of our current and new volunteers. The job is mostly emailing to all volunteers about volunteer opportunities and coordinating with the team so we know how many volunteers will be at each event or club.
Children Across America provides educational programming(STEM and STREAM), preventative healthcare, healthy lifestyles and coding to America's under served children. The Milford office deals with residents of Milford and the surrounding towns of Blackstone Valley although we will never turn a child away no matter where they live. Our newest location is in Avon/Brockton and next year we will open Dorchester. It is almost 100% volunteer organization and all of our services are provided free of charge.
Children Across America - A child who reads becomes an adult who thinks.
