Are you an artist? Talented with computers? A good listener? A student who needs community service hours? Would you like to share your love of reading?

Your time and talent is greatly appreciated at the YWCA. There are many opportunities you can participate in to help improve the lives of women and young children.

These are just a few volunteer projects that could use your help:

• Tutors or computer coaches in the YWCA Youth Technology Programs to work individually with Lawrence schoolchildren (3-5pm on any weekday; great for High School students)
• Babysitting while mothers participate in group activities at YWCA transitional housing programs
• Male mentors for boys in the OASIS residence
• Painting and ‘spruce up’ projects at various locations (great for corporate or service groups)
• Administrative assistance for fundraising and community education programs
• Event volunteers – wine tasting, luncheons, raffles, yard sales
• Fundraising volunteers – events, cell phone drive, yard sales, raffle sales
