Volunteer Opportunity: Help Local Children In Need

Are you interested in making a difference for local children? Assistance League of Northern Virginia is looking for additional members to help support the food, clothing and literacy programs it offers at several Title 1 elementary schools throughout the area. Assistance League will be starting an additional reading program at an elementary school in Reston in the very near future and welcomes additional participants who are interested in helping young students develop their reading skills.

Assistance League offers many opportunities for you to use your special skills and to develop new ones, while also making new friends among its dedicated team of caring volunteers. As a member, you can participate in hands-on events, such as packing weekend food bags, toiletries, and Hugs Pillows; weekly reading programs and periodic book fairs at the schools. Members also help with behind-the scenes activities, such as drafting grant applications, news releases, and letters to supporters. If your background is tech, writing, graphic design, or photography, we can use your help.

To learn more about Assistance League and its new tutoring program email membership@alnv.org. Assistance League will be happy to provide additional information and answer questions. You can learn more about the nonprofit organization and its philanthropic programs at www.alnv.org. The membership application form can be accessed from the Volunteer button at the top of the landing page. Join other caring volunteers to help vulnerable children develop their potential.
