Current Needs

An older man with glasses, a white shirt, and long hair tied back, playing a guitar while sitting on the floor in front of a group of children at a church or synagogue. The children are sitting on the floor, smiling, with some wearing colorful clothing and accessories like a tiara and a yellow flower headband. The room has wooden chairs, a stained glass window, and religious displays.

Volunteers 

Would you like to read a story to the children?

How about sharing about a hobby or skill of your own?

Lead students in a physical education activity - hiking, yoga, a game in the gym?

Great at gardening? Want to share that gift with students?
