We are actively seeking volunteers to help empower refugee families and students as they navigate their new lives in our community. There are several ways you can make a meaningful impact, whether through tutoring, family support, or skills training. By joining our volunteer team, you’ll be a part of an important mission to help refugees build independence, gain new skills, and thrive in their new environment. Here are the current opportunities to get involved:

​​

• Tutoring Refugee Students: We are looking for volunteers to help tutor refugee students every Thursday from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM. These students are from elementary to high school, and your support can make a lasting difference in their education.

​

​

• Family-to-Family Allies: We are seeking compassionate Allies to help refugee families by connecting with them one-on-one in our Family-to-Family program. As an Ally, you'll provide guidance and support as refugees adjust to their new community. You can work with your family any day that suits you, and every Thursday from 6 PM to 7:30 PM, we gather for a shared meal and educational sessions. These gatherings focus on empowering refugees with the tools they need to integrate successfully, covering topics such as job readiness, financial literacy, and community engagement. Trainings are provided for both Allies and refugees to ensure a smooth and positive experience.

​

• Driving Instruction for Refugee Families: We need volunteers to help teach refugee families how to drive, as it is essential for their independence and self-sufficiency. Our goal is to help at least one family member in each household become a licensed driver. Mileage reimbursement is provided for this program.

​

• Childcare Volunteers: We are looking for volunteers to provide childcare during our Family-to-Family program every Thursday evening, especially for parents who are unable to attend the sessions because they do not have someone to care for their children. Your help ensures these parents can participate and gain the skills they need.

​

• Grant Writing: If you have experience in writing grants, we would love your support in securing funding for our various programs. Your contributions will help us expand our reach and resources to better serve the refugee community.

Your time and dedication can make a world of difference to a refugee family in need. Join us today and help refugees thrive in their new home!
