Volunteer Application Form

Volunteering at the Centre can be a very worthwhile and fulfilling experience.

If you picture yourself teaching someone to improve their reading, writing or math skills and watching them improve and gain confidence and self-esteem, then you might enjoy tutoring. Our tutor/student pairs don't just read together, they laugh together and develop nurturing relationships.

Or perhaps you enjoy answering telephones, or reading rhymes and poetry to youngsters. Interested? We thought you would be! We invite you to spend a few moments filling out this form - the possibilities for personal growth and satisfaction are endless.
