DLC Volunteer Opportunities
You can help change a life!
Illiteracy is one of the root causes of poverty, hopelessness, violence,
and imprisonment. Studies show that nearly 48% of adults in the United
states are functionally illiterate, and in the last ten years, Columbus
ranks number one for growth of immigrant and refugee populations.
You can help change a life by volunteering to tutor one student one
hour per week.
The
Dominican Learning Center accepts applications for volunteer tutors on
an on-going basis. Tutors commit to work with a student approximately
one hour
per week (although some tutors elect to work with more than one student).
Workshops are
provided to teach volunteers about tutoring effectively. If you
have a high school diploma and are interested in becoming a volunteer
tutor,
please call us at (614) 444-7330 or email
us for more information.
Help us help others
If
you are interested in volunteering in a capacity other than tutoring,
please call us at (614) 444-7330 or email
us to discuss the possibilities. Administrative, phone answering,
receptionist or cleaning help and assistance with periodic individual
projects are welcome on a regular or one-time basis.
