Great opportunity to help with packaging, labeling, pricing, sorting the required material provided. We met other people in students in college. It's a great way to give back and help organizations that support teachers! I would recommend for students and parents. I went with my nieces and my husband.

I volunteered several times at the RAFT location in Redwood City and really enjoyed my time there. The staff was friendly and the tasks were great (lots of organizational stuff). A nice environment to be in!

Great place to volunteer as an individual or as a group. Easy to sign up for a volunteer slot on their online calendar.
Lovely to see all the various kits set up for teachers to use, and the different tools used to experience concepts. Love that at the winter holiday time, they allow teachers even more free books to give to their kids as gifts.
