2020 Update: our volunteer needs and structures continue to evolve as we respond to the Covid 19 pandemic. Please contact Johanna Ledesma for the most recent information about volunteer opportunities.

The GreenHouse has volunteer partnerships with several local colleges and universities. College students volunteer in our elementary and teen after-school programs, providing tutoring and mentorship for 1st-12th graders. You learn a ton, and it's lots of fun! Volunteering at The GreenHouse as a college student provides:
-- A supportive environment to work with kids, developing your own gifts, skills and passions
-- Helpful experience and references you can use on a resume and job applications
-- An opportunity to get volunteer or internship hours and/or complete your Service Learning Project (additional information below)
-- A flexible schedule to complete your hours, with volunteer opportunities Monday-Friday
-- Internship opportunities that can lead to summer jobs
-- Work-related feedback to develop your professional skills
-- Role modeling from highly experienced older staff
-- A chance to be a role model, inspiring younger kids and teens in your own community!
