Volunteer Job Description: After School Homework Helpers

 

Many of the communities we serve lack vital resources that families need to be successful and thrive.  The tools for educational success are often not available to the children we serve.  Using volunteers to assist elementary age students with their homework is one way that we can maximize our ability to provide a safety net for these students.  In as little as two hours a week, a volunteer can make a significant difference in the life of a child, by assisting with assignments, projects, and getting to know the children we serve.

 

Volunteers:

·         Complete the Volunteer Application

·         Pass back screening*

·         Be Fingerprinted*

·         Attend a 2-hour initial training session

 

 

WHAT: Assisting Agape staff with an after school, academic enrichment program, designed to provide a safe place for children to complete school work and to experience the love of a nurturing staff.  Helping children, primarily 1st – 5th grade, with their homework and school projects in the Agape satellite office in Whitehaven.
