Volunteers

What is a BLAST Volunteer?
There are different types of BLAST Volunteers. From directly working one-on-one with a child or youth to assisting our organization with various events or projects, almost anyone can help change the life of a child. BLAST Volunteers include:

Academic Mentors
College student volunteers act as Academic Mentors working directly with one student or a group of students. They act as a supportive role model and assist children with literacy skills and homework.

If you are a college student interested in becoming an Academic Mentor or need information about volunteering through one of your college courses (i.e. application, requirements, paperwork, etc.), click below.
