Mentor Program Seeks Volunteers
Mentor Program Seeks Volunteers
Each year, teachers and social workers from five local schools identify at-risk
children whom they feel would benefit from our mentoring program. During the
school year, volunteers are paired in a school-based, one-on-one relationship,
with the aim of helping a child toward a more promising future. The curriculum
includes creative learning games, hands-on projects, noncompetitive sports, and
guest speakers.
Volunteers meet one night per week at a local school, and participate in
one-on-one and group activities. The program begins the third week of September
and consists of two ten week sessions during the school year.
Our next Volunteer Orientation is scheduled for
August 21, from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. at Village Hall. If you have been thinking
about becoming more involved in your community, have no criminal record, and
enjoy spending time with children, please call Judy Rosen at 870-5680.
