 Do you have a favorite childhood story? Share it with our younger members by volunteering as a reader. This is just one of many volunteer opportunities available within Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston's Education Department. Volunteers will assist by providing individualized homework help to Club members between the ages of 6-18. Teen support includes instruction in subjects such as Chemistry, Biology, Algebra, and Calculus. Other opportunities include working with our Career Prep and College Club programs. By providing such assistance, volunteers will help members gain a sense of mastery and accomplishment, vital to success in school! The application process to serve as a volunteer with BGCB includes the following: one reference letter, state and national CORI forms (Criminal Offender Record Information), and a SORI form (Sex Offender Registry Board). CORI forms must be completed with a BGCB staff and accompanied by a copy of a government issued ID. Forms take up to 2-4 weeks to clear. We request a minimum commitment of one hour per week for twelve weeks. We also require that volunteers attend an orientation. Additional information and our online application can be accessed on our website at www.bgcb.org. This opportunity is sponsored by: Boys & Girls Clubs Of Boston - Greater Boston
