It takes a lot of grownups to make a thriving, safe, healthy,
fun environment for kids to do the hard work of growing up.
Below, you can learn about ways to get involved!

Become a Community Helper
and Make a program of your own!
Love to play board games? So do kids!
We can start a board game club featuring a different board game each week for 8 weeks.
Big into sports? We've got kids for you!
Basketball. Soccer. Rock climbing. Running. Tennis. Softball. Baseball. Sign up to teach a few skills and run some intramural games with the kids at program for a few weeks. They'd love it!
Is the outside your thing? It's their thing too!
Teach the kids about hiking, fishing, archery, backpacking, or any other activity you love to do outside.
The point is anything you love to do- we can help you build a program around that to run once a week for just a few weeks with a fantastic group of kids who are wanting nothing more than some time with you!
Bring your program to us!
We know it's not all about re-inventing the wheel. It's also just about bringing already-happening great resources together. If you're a group already working with kids- we' want nothing more than partner with you!
Scouts, 4-H, Good News Clubs, Mentoring Groups, Art Clubs, Yoga - Dance - or Karate Classes. Whatever Program you run or are part of in the community, we'd love to give you a space and the kids to run it in the schools as part of our after-school program!
Help us build our network!
At the end of the day, we know there really is nothing more powerful than connection and we are always on the search for new great people to extend an invitation into meaningful time with our kids. If you can't commit to running your own program for an hour once a week for 8 weeks, you might know someone who could!
Maybe you want to come in and do a one-day presentation on something you love at each of the schools as an alternative from an 8 week program at one of them. Maybe you know of an instructor who would love to work with us to bring new experiences to our kids. Maybe you know of someone who would want to sponsor a specific activity or program for us to get into schools for the kids.

One of the most valuable things we need are community connections. If you know of someone we should be reaching out to, please send their information our way, or pass ours onto them.
