Wanted: Eastern Volunteers

Wanted: Eastern Volunteers


 
 
We need your help with 2 community programs! Please contact the CCE at cce@easternct.edu ASAP if interested!

The Windham Middle School Mentor Program: you are paired with middle school students in order to develop a mentor/role model relationship. Eastern students will engage in recreational activities, academic support and conversations around wellness, education and personal self- image. Mentoring activities are from 2:30 to 3:45, but volunteers are welcome to sign up until 4:30 to assist with homework time.
 

Bridges to the Future/Puentes al Futuro: designed for English Language Learner (ELL) students from Windham Middle School and Windham High School. The program participants work with Eastern volunteers and instructors on homework tutoring and then participate in cultural and arts enrichment experiences including folkloric dance, drumming, and journal making about their culture. 
 
The program will be held on different days in different classrooms on Eastern Connecticut State University's campus or at the Windham Middle School or the Windham High School according to the schedule. Detailed information about the program will be provided once students commit to volunteer in any of the program days.
