How you can Volunteer and join our "Community as Family!"
- Consistency is very important in the lives of youth in foster care. Our volunteer on-boarding process ensures consistency in our approach and in building long-lasting relationships with the Peace4Kids fam!
Each year, our volunteers contribute 5000+ hours, accounting for almost 80% of our services. If you're interested in promoting peace in the lives of youth in foster care, join our community and prepare for a transformational experience!
Primarily our volunteers connect with youth on Saturdays from 8:30am - 1:30pm in an environment that focuses on creativity, education, life skills building, health and wellness. Under the guidance of our staff, volunteers are given the tools to work one-to-one with youth, developing strong bonds that leave a lasting impression.
