Volunteer
Our 70,000 volunteers make it possible for Communities In Schools to serve more than 1.25 million young people each year.
Organizing a school supply drive, serving as a mentor, volunteering to read to a student...there are as many ways to volunteer as there are potential volunteers. Your local Communities In Schools affiliate depends on volunteers just like you. To learn how you can help, find your local affiliate and give them a call! You can change a child's life by volunteering to be part of it.
