Looking for a volunteer opportunity working with children? The St. Martin de Porres After School Program is looking for you! Located on Palm Beach Blvd. near the Post Office in Tice, it is in need of volunteers.
Verandah residents, Liz Grader, Kathleen Quarto and Linda Jones volunteer one day a week, but more volunteers are needed.
Currently, six little boys need help with their math and reading homework. They are in need of time with adults who will speak English to them, read, play games and help with crafts.
According to Kathleen Quarto, “They are funny, respectful children who pay attention and have parents who want them to learn and succeed.”
Helping from 2:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. any day from Monday through Thursday, would make a real difference in these children’s lives. Prior teaching experience is helpful, but not necessary.
For more information on this program, contact Program Director Drina Madden at 708-955-1712 or [email protected].
