About Volunteers

Volunteers Needed

It is a new year and our team here at the Family Literacy Center has started a new

initiative called “Utilizing Our Talents.” We know that many of our volunteers have

exceptional skills in specific areas and we may be not tapping into that incredible pool of

talents.  We hope to change this.

 

 

We have identified specific needs within the Family Literacy Center and have

developed basic job descriptions for these needs.  It is our hope that our current volunteers

may discover that they can help in new ways that may be very fulfilling to them.  We also

hope that our volunteer team will feel more comfortable recruiting new volunteers that may

not want to be traditional volunteer tutors (although we always have a need for them as

well).

 

There is SO much our volunteers can do to help us achieve the mission of the

Family Literacy Center which is “building skills and enriching lives through literacy in the Lapeer

County area.”  Please review this extensive list of volunteer jobs.  There is a great variety of

jobs we need filled.  Contact us if you believe you possess the skills necessary to be

successful in one or more positions.  We will provide training, support and supplies.

 

Thank you for your time and commitment to the Family Literacy Center!
