How will this opportunity benefit the volunteer?
Great for people who like to work with kids. Valuable experience for people working with children. Generally a fulfilling type of work for people who enjoy giving back to local community.
Highly social and group oriented volunteering.
How will the organization benefit?
Increased capacity and ability to deliver services to families. Many of our participants cannot afford childcare, and so onsite childminding can be a major boon in lowering the barrier of entry for receiving services.
