Volunteer Opportunities

  • Make Friends Making A Difference

    Are you looking to connect with our local community? Have you heard about Jumpstart? Jumpstart is a national early education organization that serves preschool children living in our local neighborhoods. You will have fun working with the same group of children in a small team of peers over the course of the year and join a diverse service network, which includes over 20,000 alumni. Transportation to and from preschool centers is included. 

    Jumpstart is working toward the day every child in America enters kindergarten prepared to succeed. Join like-minded people in becoming a part of the movement.
