Agency: Inland Temporary Homes

Description: Do you enjoy mentoring and playing with kids?

Each Tuesday Night, volunteers assist the clients of Inland Temporary Homes by providing much needed companionship and recreation for toddler, kids and teens while their parents attend classes to enhance their parenting skills.

Kids are split into age groups where volunteers facilitate age-appropriate arts, crafts, group activities and projects that will enhance the children's social and emotional development. The first hour is spent on the lesson-plan, and the second hour is spent in free play with the children.

These kids love the attention and company you provide as a volunteer, and they'll bring out the child in you! By working with these kids, volunteer help break the cycle of family homelessness by instilling skills and values that the children can utilize in the future. And you get to play!!!

Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age.
