| Volunteering |
Make Time. Make a difference.
There are number of ways to get involved as an AchieveAbility volunteer. To start, check out some of the opportunities below! |
Operation Welcome Home:
Help a new family feel more at home by donating new and gently used
household items through Operation Welcome Home. Volunteers Kristy Clewett
and Donna Witonsky are organizing this new effort to provide the basics
for recently homeless families that are moving into AchieveAbility.
Many of the families coming to AchieveAbility have very little to furnish
their new homes.
Here is a list of common household items our families need
- twin
and queen bed frames,
- Gift
cards and non-perishable food items are also a big help.
| | Gift Closet:
We need your help! Our gift closet stores in-kind donations
from Bed, Bath and Beyond and other generous donors. These items need to
be sorted and organized so families can find what they need.
People who work on this
project will help families pick out items for their homes and choose
presents for their children.
If you have a couple of
hours, we can use your help. This is an ongoing project that does
not require a time commitment. All we ask is that you come in during
normal working hours during the week.

| Summer Environmental Education
Camp Work with 10-15 kids on environmental
education, gardening, clean-up projects, arts &
crafts, and various other activities. |
|
Family to Family: Spend time at the aquarium or the ball game with our families.
Family:Family outings are a chance for volunteer and AchieveAbility families to meet, relax, and learn from each other. | |
Home Improvement: Help clean and paint AchieveAbility houses to prepre them for new residents.
House projects are available during the week and on the first Saturday of every month.
This project is great for a team of volunteers. | |
Fundraising Events:
Organize fundraising events with AchieveAbility staff and board members.
Spring Gala is May 12th! | |
People Going Places:
Participate in a leadership dinner with AchieveAbility parents and share your career and academic insights. We are looking
for volunteers to sponsor dinners as well as contribute to the discussion. | |
Tutoring adults and children is a
big part of the volunteer experience -- and what families need most --
at AchieveAbility.
Since education is the key to self-sufficiency, we need tutors to help
with math, reading, science and other classes.
|
| | | Note: Tutors and other
volunteers who work directly with AchieveAbility families will be asked to
complete a background check and child abuse clearance. | |
