 Volunteers are needed to assist children with homework, be a physical fitness partner, or just play a board game one afternoon. Getting the attention of a positive adult role model for just one or two hours makes a huge impact on a child's life. One of our children was so impressed that a college student came over one day to play a game of spades with them, that made their day. You can make their day also, be a volunteer. Our children have various interest from arts to xbox games!
