This opportunity helps local youth, families, volunteers, and community. Volunteers can be a part of free, fun community service events for the community, providing everything from food, games, and community building activities. Events also help the children still on our wait list, to have one day mentoring opportunities and not feel left out of the program. Events also help families and Matches have something to do. Volunteers can often participate and gain food, prizes etc. from events too, as well as are always welcome to community building where applicable. We are happy to have you!
