  1. Hello Kathy. I am interested in volunteering for after school program tutoring (Oct-June), Service Learning Leader or as a Saturday morning tutor.

    Could you please provide me more information on how I could apply for any of these positions? Also, I was wondering what kind of qualifications you would need for any of these positions.

    Thank you for your time!

    • Hi Michelle,

      I sent additional information to your email so please check. Keep in touch! =)

  3. Hi Kathy,

    I’m the Vice President of Student Enrichment club in Seattle Central Community College. Our club’s mission is to provide community services for people in need and voluntary activities for the students. Would you like us to help you with anything?

    Unfortunately, we can only do it on the weekend and once in a while.

    Please consider.
    Thanks for your time!

    • Hi Nghi,

      Thank you for contacting VFA! While we are always looking for volunteers, unfortunately most of our opportunities are during the weekdays. The only program we have on Saturdays is the Supplemental Education Services (SES) headed by James. You can contact him directly at his email: James.lovell at vfaseattle.org. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

      Thank you!
