Classes are two hours long, and we offer a flexible class schedule with sessions scheduled throughout the day to accommodate personal preference and availability.

Provide direct support to a deployed military chaplain - Virtual Opportunity
Would you like to help supply a deployed chaplain items to assist them in providing support and comfort to our deployed US Service Members? You can do so from the comfort of your home. You can provide this support through the Soldiers’ Angels Chaplains Support Team. Items might include non-denominational letters to distribute to service members, as well as gifts and supplies that can be easily distributed to service members who may be needing extra support. Because chaplains travel throughout the war zone, working with them helps Soldiers' Angels reach personnel who may be in remote locations, feeling isolated and lonely, and in need of a morale boost. We also strongly encourage these service members to submit their names for adoption through their chaplain.

Help Soldiers in Harm's Way from your home through virtual volunteering
with Packages 4 PatriotsA Plea for Letters of Gratitude for Soldier’s in Harm’s way Make a difference from the comfort of your own home. Packages4Patriots strives to include personal letters in every care package that we send. These letters and drawings ensure that a Soldier, Sailor, Marine or Airman knows that you are thinking of them. It will only take 5 minutes out of your day to write a letter, but it will bring joy to our troops that will last a lifetime. Sadly, most months we do not have enough letters and drawings for every care package. Here is some help to get started: CHILDREN AND ADULTS Letters: I write about everything. I include sketches and photos and poems and stories, quotes from what is going on around me and maybe some lyrics from a song. A puzzle, a quiz, a riddle. Kid’s Art: Don’t ask them to draw anything specific. Just collect them; A common favorite drawing is stick figures of your family and pets in front of your house. WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT Keep your message upbeat and positive Be thankful ~~ share a little bit of yourself Ask questions; however, do not discuss death or killing Avoid politics completely and religion in excess It’s all about appreciation and respect Ask yourself: "Will this letter bring a smile to someone’s face?" HOW TO GET YOUR LETTERS AND DRAWINGS TO US You can drop donations off during the day at The Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit. The church by appointment only; Phone: 847-437-5897 You can also mail to Packages 4 Patriots at The Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, 150 Lions Drive, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007 NEVER FORGET!

Make education accessible. Become a Hindi translator!
with OPPIA FOUNDATION INCIf you’re fluent in spoken and written Hindi and passionate about eradicating education inequality, keep reading! Oppia is looking for a translator to assist our team with translating our online story-based lessons from English to Hindi . To get started, please fill in this form: https://forms.gle/HTCWBRixXo9gJj2o7 Who We Are The Oppia Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission to provide high quality education to all. We do this through the creation and maintenance of our free-to-use platform, Oppia (https://www.oppia.org), the coordination of our passionate contributors, and the development of critical partnerships with NGOs in the communities we aim to serve. Where You Fit In Millions of children are not receiving the education they deserve. Of the 61 million children worldwide who cannot attend primary school, 17 million will never step foot into a school if trends continue. Students around the world face difficulties accessing quality education due to conflict, discrimination, and lack of teacher training - and, in the wake of COVID-19, millions more children are also seeing interruptions in their daily lives, stability, and education, which makes it even more difficult for them to get the education they need to succeed. Our community of volunteers has created a series of novel and engaging story-based mathematics lessons that have proved highly engaging and effective with English-speaking students, including in a randomized controlled trial. We now want to expand the reach of these lessons by translating them into Hindi , in order to make them as accessible as possible to learners who have Hindi as a native language. This language is a particular focus for Oppia because we already have evidence that students who speak it would like to use our lessons, but have difficulty doing so because of the lack of translations. We are therefore seeking fluent or native-level speakers of Hindi to help with translating the lessons. Why Oppia is an Organization You Want to Work With Oppia has served over 2,000,000 users. Oppia focuses on effectiveness, and conducts rigorous user testing and RCTs to validate the lessons we offer. Learners using Oppia’s lessons have seen gains of 50+% from pre-test to post-test. Oppia's contributors actively help to provide students around the world with basic education. Please see https://medium.com/@ebelubhuhiose/86b97283edf4 and https://medium.com/@ojobusayo99/6e783aaddb74 for examples of our current work. Oppia has a community of hundreds of passionate volunteers from across the globe, so our meetings are held online at flexible times. What Our Translation Team Contributes Adding written translations of lessons to other languages. Advising on any barriers that students from different cultures might encounter when understanding and relating to the stories we have written to motivate the lessons.

Marketing Graphic Designer for the Awareness/Growth Team
with OPPIA FOUNDATION INCIf you’re a skilled graphic designer who is passionate about helping underserved children gain access to education, keep reading! Oppia is looking for a graphic designer to assist our Marketing & Outreach team with creating graphics and assets that help spread awareness of the free lessons that we offer, especially in places around the world where students typically lack access to educational opportunities. If you're interested, please fill out this form to get started! https://forms.gle/ZeCvjFqu4z3Rv8o96 Who We Are The Oppia Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission to provide high quality education to all. We do this through the creation and maintenance of our platform, Oppia, the coordination of our passionate contributors, and the development of critical partnerships with NGOs in the communities we aim to serve. Where You Fit In Millions of children are not receiving the education they deserve. Of the 61 million children worldwide who cannot attend primary school, 17 million will never step foot into a school if trends continue. With the presence of COVID-19 today, millions more children are also seeing interruptions in their daily lives, stability, and education - making it even more difficult than before for many students to get the education they need to succeed. It is an exciting time for Oppia - as we've just released our first comprehensive, basic mathematics curriculum, and studies and small pilots have shown that the free lessons are working well for students! However, one obstacle is ensuring that students and their parents are aware that these lessons exist, so that they can use them. We are therefore looking for a graphic or visual designer who can help us build appealing brand and marketing assets that help families and institutions in places like Ghana, Palestine and Brazil get started with using the lessons. These assets will then be used and shared across our social media, blog, newsletter, and more to help make parents and learners aware that these free resources are available for them. We plan to start with a more experimentation-focused approach, so that we can better understand how to reach these audiences, after which we will solidify a marketing strategy and focus on increasing reach with messages that resonate with this audience. Why Oppia is an Organization You Want to Work With Oppia has served over 1,100,000 users. Oppia’s current library consists of more than 20,000 lessons. Oppia focuses on effectiveness. Our continuous improvement process involves rigorous user testing and RCTs to ensure we create high quality educational materials catered to the needs of our most underserved global learners. Oppia consists of passionate volunteers from across the globe, so our meetings are held online at flexible times. What Our Marketing Graphic Designers Contribute Work together with marketing team leads to create designs for e.g. Facebook ads or posts that can then be tested with our target audience. Note that, due to the nature of this project, quick-and-dirty designs might sometimes be better than pixel-perfect illustrations, so that we can at least get a sense of what sort of approach works best. Some designs might also combine photographic imagery (e.g. of students using the lessons) with the right framing or illustrations. To start with, we're thinking of having a flow where the marketing team lead would create a rough design and pass it along to you for productionization, in order to help reduce communication overhead. As you get used to Oppia's design style and the goals that the team is trying to achieve, you can then start creating designs directly and proposing your own experiments! Contribute to a general design style guide for Oppia's marketing initiatives. Also, since we are a global, volunteer-run team, we ask that you also be responsive to emails, so that the team can communicate effectively with each other! If you're interested, please fill out this form to get started! https://forms.gle/ZeCvjFqu4z3Rv8o96
