In every community, numerous opportunities exist for volunteer work helping children from economically and otherwise disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed in school. Opportunities to help disadvantaged children succeed in school include tutoring or mentoring in the local schools.

 Head Start centers for poor preschool children often have opportunities to do something concrete to help children. An education faculty member at your college can give you contact information or go to the association’s website at www.nhsa.org.

 Help in a local Boys and Girls Club that provides socialization experiences for children through their teens. You can find a club near you by going to www.bgca.org/whoweare/Pages/FindaClub.aspx.

 Take service learning course credits. Locate the service learning office at your college or university to learn about service learning programs on your campus that help disadvantaged children.
