There are three ways to volunteer:

*As a Group-Your church or organization can come out and help with various projects throughout the year.  We had volunteers come out in 2008 to help with everything from painting and landscaping to providing special programs for the children.

*As an individual-To best utilize our resources, we often rely on volunteers to help with the day to day activities of the Center.  We are especially in need of male mentors and tutors, but have opportunities for females as tutors as well.  In addition, we often need help in our accounting, development, human resources, and missions departments with clerical work.

*As an individual/committees-We need individuals to serve on various committees, including programming, fundraising, and special events.
