Use your experience to make a positive difference in the lives of children as a Foster Grandparent volunteer. You will be matched to opportunities that interest you in local schools, Head Start centers, or youth centers.

Income-eligible Foster Grandparent volunteers receive a modest tax-free stipend and mileage reimbursement and generally volunteer 20 hours per week.

Volunteers are currently needed!

This program is funded by a grant from AmeriCorps.
