Volunteer Opportunitites-- Fall 2007

Here are the latest volunteer opportunities at the CWA-Cayce Learning Center! Please contact me if you are interested or have questions! We ask that our volunteers love children, exhibit patience, respect diversity, have a willingness to learn, and can commit to volunteering once a week.

Homework Helpers
We are looking for energetic and committed adults interested in helping children and youth (grades K-12) with homework. Volunteers are expected to commit to one day per week (Monday through Thursday) from either 3:15-4:30pm, 4:30-5:30pm, OR 3:15-5:30pm. You'll be assigned to an age group of your choice and will help them finish homework and work on any enrichment activities the teachers have provided. No experience necessary... just a love of children and an interest in giving back to the community!

Reading Group Facilitator
The CWA-Cayce Learning Center is also looking for volunteers interested in facilitating small reading groups once a week. Groups consist of no more than five students and lesson plans are provided by a reading specialist. Lessons will be provided one week in advance, but require little to no preparation. A short training/orientation is required, as is a background check and fingerprinting. We are in need of someone to assist our middle school group on Mondays and/or Wednesdays from 4:45-5:30pm.

Computer Lab Volunteer
The CWA-Cayce Learning Center is looking for committed individuals to work in our computer lab during our afterschool program. Volunteers will assist children in a brief assignment provided by the teachers and then will supervise, engage and interact with children as they enjoy free time on the computers. We ask that our volunteers commit to one day per week.

We are looking for computer lab volunteers during the following times:
Mondays from 3:30-4:15pm and/or 4:45-5:30pm (elementary grades)
Tuesdays from 3:30-4:15pm and/or 4:45-5:30pm (middle & high school students)
Wednesdays from 3:30-4:15pm and/or 4:45-5:30pm (elementary grades)
Thursdays from 3:30-4:15pm and/or 4:45-5:30pm (middle and high school students)
