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.

Tutors/Mentors.  Enthusiastic and committed volunteers are needed to help with youth activities at Carver Estates public housing in Delray. These include homework help, one-on-one reading, computers, inside and outside free play, sports, art activities, gardening, etc. with elementary school age students from 2:15 to 5:15 p.m., Monday through Friday. Also similar activities with our Teen Club members from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday. Come and join us!

Palm Beach Opera needs volunteers on a "call as needed" basis. Volunteers will help with a variety of clerical duties needed for the timely distribution of mass mailings and newsletters. Dress is "business casual." In addition, they would welcome some talented teens to help with their summer programs for children. If you are interested in art, music, writing, or drama, this could be a perfect fit.
