Volunteers greatly enrich our program and provide a way for community members to support this meaningful program. Volunteer opportunities exist in the following areas: |
|
| CLASSROOM ASSISTANTS | |
| People who have experience sewing assist in the sewing classroom. They work one- on- one with students as they learn sewing skills, assist the sewing teacher in preparing for the class, and perform various tasks related to our contract sewing. | |
| ELL ASSISTANTS | |
| As part of the program, students have English for the workplace. Volunteers are a vital part of the program helping in the English classroom and working with students on English skills one- on- one. | |
| OFFICE HELPERS | |
| There is an on-going need for people to help with office tasks, mostly related to fundraising. Data entry, phone calls, filing, mailings, and general organizing are tasks we need help with. Office helpers will have opportunities to get to know the students while they are here. | |
| SALES & EVENTS | |
| We have many opportunities to reach out to the community by selling items made by the students. We would welcome volunteer assistance with these evenings and weekend events. This would be an occasional commitment of 1½ to 3 hours. | |
