Overall Experience   
Great experience

My volunteer experience at Families First has been rewarding and uplifting because it helps children grow and achieve goals in school. It is wonderful place to help a child with his or her homework, and to participate in fun and creative activities. I recommend this excellent program to anyone who plans to teach, work with children, or wants to assist a child. You will gain knowledge and valuable experience from these remarkable children. posted by turtlemay on October 31, 2007

Overall Experience   
incredible kids / a very rewarding program!

I have been volunteering at FamiliesFirst After School Tutoring Program for 1-1/2 years now. It is a great opportunity to help kids who need extra academic assistance. The program is a lot of fun for kids as well as volunteers as it combines tutoring, educational activities, creative games, and an arts & crafts program. posted by ldepole on September 5, 2007
