Can you spare an hour a week to volunteer with children? Brewer Island School, a K-5 elementary school in Foster City, is in dire need of 20 reading volunteers. You will work one-on-one with a child needing reading help. You don’t need to give a huge amount of time, maybe just an hour a week, but it would be a lifesaver to a child needing help. Age doesn’t matter, you can be a student, parent, senior citizen, you just need to want to make a difference in a child’s life.
Contact Brewer Island School for more information. There is one condition in volunteering. With all of the new laws that have passed the past couple of years, you must get yourself finger printed at the Foster City Police Department. This only takes a minute to do but it is mandatory in order to volunteer with children today. Hopefully you will understand that is has become a necessity of life today.
Give an hour of time and help a child. It will be a gift that will last a lifetime for that child, and for you, too. Please pass this on to your friends and family who might also like to do this. By the way, check out the need for this at other local schools. My bet is, they too, need this help.
