Boca Helping Hands provides bags of groceries from its food pantry and hot meals on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. In addition it provides more than 1000 sandwiches and snacks a week for the children in low-income, after-school, child-care facilities in the area. Shut-in meals are also provided. We welcome teen (16+) volunteers. The center is a wonderful place for students to volunteer because of its friendly and caring atmosphere.
Caridad Health Clinic
Translating/Tutorial Program: Each Saturday morning students meet to help migrant families and local doctors communicate at the Caridad Health Clinic. Students also help by baby-sitting children of patients while parents are busy with the doctor. Often Spanish speaking students help older members of the families learn English. Although open to everyone, this is an excellent opportunity for students in the Spanish curriculum to practice and perfect Spanish.

Giving Lax is an organization dedicated to bringing lacrosse to underprivileged youth in South Florida. Giving Lax collects new and used lacrosse equipment to outfit the children with all necessary protective gear. Once we've collected enough equipment, we begin our instructional lacrosse clinics at various after-school centers. We are always in need of volunteer coaches.
Dixie Manor After-School Program
Tutors/Playmates: Many volunteers are needed to help with sixty children aged 6-12 after school at Lois Martin Community Center in Dixie Manor, a local housing project. Duties include planning special events, helping with homework, and playing outside. The program is child-oriented, designed to encourage and motivate the kids to live a successful life.
