Anything else?
* Your relationship with Jesus MATTERS. It's not about preaching, teaching or inviting kids to church, it's about shining the light of Christ through your words and your actions every day.
* Focus. Your time and attention is necessary to provide adequate supervision and to build upon the foundation of a relationship. We ask that you stay present and aware by keeping phones and devices put away during your volunteer time.
* Background checks are a MUST! The well being of our organization and the students requires us to be diligent in all aspects of safety and security.
Volunteering is easy! Your commitment can be as little as a couple of hours once a month, or as often as attending every activity. The more time you are willing to give, the more effective your influence becomes. Activities you may be asked to participate in may include card games, board games, video games, billiards, joke-telling, snack eating, listening, drawing, movie watching, singing, laser tag, comic book reading and more! We appreciate your willingness to support this organization and the reasons for its existence by offering your time and talents.
If you wish to become a volunteer at the Portal 2:20 Teen Center, please stop in to pick up or DOWNLOAD an application. Applications may be mailed or dropped off during our regular hours. (Applications subject to board review and approval.)
