Are you a great teacher with a good eye for detail? Help improve Oppia's free basic math lessons!
with OPPIA FOUNDATION INCDo you have an eye for detail, and a passion for making lessons as understandable as possible, in order to help underserved children gain access to basic math education? If so, Oppia is looking for volunteers to join our lesson reviewing team and help improve our curated online math lessons. To get started, please fill in this form: https://forms.gle/hhj548cqdccoWqzK8 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. In the wake of COVID-19, 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. Our volunteer community has created a series of over 70 mathematics lessons that have proved highly engaging and effective, including in a randomized controlled trial. Their success has been possible because of our very careful content creation process, with multiple rounds of review to ensure that all the explanations are as clear as possible. We are now expanding our reach to other areas of mathematics and science, and are committed to maintaining the same level of quality. We are looking for experienced educators, ideally with a background in editing, proofreading, and/or mathematics teaching, to read draft educational content and provide feedback on what needs to be improved, or to evaluate suggestions for improving the lessons and advise on which changes should be made. 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 Lesson Improvements Team Contributes Review all new educational content before it is published to students. Identify errors, unclear explanations, or references that might confuse students from different cultures, and provide suggestions to improve the text and presentation. Review suggestions for improvements to existing lessons, and advise on which ones to implement. Review existing lessons and suggest improvements to them. If you’d like to help out, please fill in our application form at https://forms.gle/hhj548cqdccoWqzK8. Thank you!

Career Mentors - Chicagoland
Career mentors are staff members that provide individualized services to participants. Some service providers refer to these staff as career coaches, case managers, or youth development specialists. The Partnership uses the term "career mentor" to recognize the unique relationship that effective staff members develop with young adults. Providing Opportunity Youth with quality career exploration, training and internship services is much more impactful when coupled with one-on-one support and mentoring.

They serve as mentors, even when not specifically identified as such. Career mentors should have at least 3 years of related work experience.

Through our 25-hour training, you can provide them encouragement, clarity, and action plan they need to get them to a better place. At Empower Work, we welcome volunteers with any amount of work experience and a passion for deep listening, empathy, and guidance. Once you’ve completed our structured training program, you’ll be able to take on a range of conversations as a Peer Counselor, using conversational tools gained from training to really get to the root of an issue and help people feel heard. At Empower Work, we’ve had volunteers stick with us for years, advancing to become mentors or take increased responsibility on the line. Here’s what one current volunteer says about their growth and impact at Empower Work: "I believe so strongly in the power of coaching, and that everyone can and should have the experience of good coaching at work. It’s clear that so many of our texters do not have anyone they can talk with candidly at work, much less someone who has coaching or counseling experience. It feels really valuable and do-able to provide that support to individuals via my volunteer shifts." Interested?

SMART Recovery San Diego Needs YOU
with SMART RecoveryVolunteer Match Listing 7 SMART Recovery San Diego Needs YOU Why SMART Recovery San Diego needs YOU. As a non-profit organization, SMART Recovery San Diego depends on volunteers to function. We offer over 40 weekly local meetings made possible through the enthusiasm, energy, and generosity of our volunteer facilitators. Still, we are not able to meet the needs of all San Diegans who might benefit from SMART Recovery meetings. Diverse facilitators and meeting styles allow participants to find what works best for them. We are proud of the welcoming, supportive, non-judgmental community we have created in San Diego. We continue to work to make SMART Recovery even more available to a broader community. Contributing your time (about 1.5 - 2 hours per week) and energy by running a meeting can make a difference in people’s lives. Many volunteers find that hosting SMART meetings is a fantastic way to maintain motivation in their own lives, expand their social networks, and live a more balanced life. With a short training process and a mentor from the SMART Recovery San Diego community, you can begin facilitating your own weekly meetings. What does a facilitator do exactly? SMART Recovery meetings bring people together to address their addictive problems and make positive changes in their lives. A facilitator helps create a safe and non-judgmental environment for discussion and keeps the meeting running smoothly. You don’t need to be an expert on SMART Recovery to become a facilitator. New facilitators use scripts to help them run their meetings. Each script covers a topic related to SMART Recovery and provides a series of questions to spark conversation, but that’s just a starting point. It’s okay for participants to discuss whatever is on their minds as long as the discussion stays focused on positive change. As you grow as a facilitator and move through the training process, you will be given more flexibility in shaping your meeting and making it truly your own. But many facilitators like the structure provided by a topic script and stick with it. Your primary role is to set the tone of the meeting. Be welcoming and engaged; clearly communicate meeting expectations. A good facilitator lets participants interact with one another. You are not there to talk at length, give advice, or tell your personal story. What are the requirements? Being a facilitator is a commitment and comes with certain responsibilities. Before you get started, decide whether you can do the following for at least six months. Respect each individual and their choices. Complete the training, including reading the appropriate documents, attending meetings, and communicating with your mentor. Hold your meeting at the same day and time for at least six months. Be intoxicant-free while facilitating. Be willing to speak, read aloud in front of others, and follow conversation in English or Spanish. Review and adhere to SMART’s fundamental ideas [ https://www.smartrecovery.org/about-us/ ] and Principles & Positions [ https://www.smartrecovery.org/principles-positions/ ]. Manage your time. Start meetings on time, end on time, and make sure everyone has a chance to speak. Read the meeting scripts provided on the SMART Recovery San Diego website as written. Respond in a timely manner to inquiries from SMART Recovery San Diego. Solicit and turn in donations. Arrange a substitute when needed. For online meetings: Have dependable access to the Internet and a computer, laptop or tablet. Be willing to use Zoom, or learn how to. What is the training process? Training starts with learning about SMART Recovery through reading and attending meetings. While listed separately, these can be done simultaneously and can take as little as 5-6 hours if you have never attended a meeting before. After you are more familiar with SMART Recovery, contact us [ training@smartrecoverysd.org ] to get matched with a mentor who will help you learn about meeting management. Attend a minimum of three SMART Recovery San Diego meetings (online or in-person) run by different facilitators to experience a range of meeting types and styles of facilitation. You can find all our meetings on the calendar. [ https://smartrecoverysd.org/meetings/ ] Familiarize yourself with the Primary Meeting Script and the Topic Scripts found in the Facilitator Resources on our website. Learn more about SMART Recovery. This process will continue after you start facilitating your own meeting. Here are some resources: The SMART Recovery Handbook [ https://shop.smartrecovery.org ] Facilitator resources on SMART Recovery San Diego website [ https://smartrecoverysd.org/become-a-facilitator/#facilitator-resources ] The SMART Recovery national website [ https://www.smartrecovery.org/smart-recovery-toolbox/ ] Using Zoom for meetings [ https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/categories/200101697 ] Contact the Facilitator Training Committee [ training@smartrecoverysd.org ] to be added to the Google group and matched with a mentor. If you’ve already connected with a mentor, let them know. Once You Have a Mentor (1.5-2 hours per week): Attend your mentor’s meeting regularly. Meet with your mentor following each meeting for a brief review. Continue to meet for feedback and suggestions throughout your training. When you are ready, facilitate your mentor’s meeting using the Primary Script and a Topic Script. Your mentor will be there for support. Continue facilitating your mentor’s meeting until you and your mentor agree that you are ready to have your own meeting. Establish your own meeting Email your meeting reports each week and stay in touch with your mentor. Making a difference While we ask for a commitment of at least six months, some people find it so rewarding that they continue facilitating for years. Many point to their weekly meetings as a vital part of making positive change in their own lives. They like that they continue to learn about the SMART approach and ways to address their unhelpful behaviors and thoughts. They enjoy the connections they’ve made and being part of a community. As you grow as a facilitator, we hope that you experience these benefits too.

Let everyone know there's a new Book with Wings
Would you like to help give angels "words wings and let the go unto the world"? We've transcribed the words they spoke from 1970 to 1989, which they asked us to call a new Book with wings. Here is the Book with Wings series, https://www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B01GQMQB62?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_0000_ft. You can see the entire Book with Wings collection of all their books so far at amazon.com/author/assoc.universal.philosophy or https://www.amazon.com/Aka-spiritual-messengers-of-God/e/B0189L65NC?ref_=dbs_p_ebk_r00_abau_000000 But the hardest part now is reaching people with this message. Can you imagine? God sends His spiritual messengers with great, and long-awaited news--the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. But who has heard about it? "We have come but for one purpose, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah." A way must be prepared in individuals hearts for his coming. "New words shall be written upon the sky, but they must be written in men's hearts first." Help give a gift of teachings, as the spiritual messengers of God have given it, in love, freely for all who will receive. Parables the spiritual messengers of God told from 1970 to 1989 offer teachings for people of all faiths and ways. The angels parables are truly profound and beautiful, as parables are. These are parables for today. See Angels Messages: Parables of Wisdom for the Thirsting Soul (Books 1-5) at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HMN007K/ref=series_rw_dp_sw The same parables are also in an ebook series, Angels Tell Parables for Today, at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074CDCMX6?ref_=dbs_r_series&storeType=ebooks. There's a book on prophecies, Your Earth Is Shifting on Its Axis. And a new one gathering the parables that were told about Jesus, shepherds, angels, and the coming of the Messiah, Good Tidings of Great Joy.And there are more. A new series is being published now. It is, The Valley and Promise of a Christmas Star, about a promised land where angels led us to follow a route called, Christmas Star. It's pretty exciting to share, this good news of angels, a new "Book with Wings!" So many volunteers have lovingly spent years gathering, typing, proofreading and assembling these books, and others. Without their loving help this couldn't have been done. We still need help--now for this most important thing of all. Now that they're ready, now that the world most needs to hear this now, we need your help sharing this message. Would you like to help angels and give their words wings to let them go unto the world? Your help will be a beautiful blessing to many. Thank you. Want to know more about the spiritual messengers of God and their message?

"Give our words wings and let them go unto the world" - promote books for angels!
The spiritual messengers of God, Aka, came from the Father, through universes and galaxies, to speak to us in more love than we can imagine. We recorded their words, watched their miracles, and grew to know them from 1970 to 1989. They spoke through an unconscious man in trance who gave up his life each time so they could come and speak. They bring good news to all who wish to receive. "We have come but for one purpose, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah." You can read more on this at https://medium.com/a-stairway-to-heaven The spiritual messengers of God ask, "Give our words wings, and let them go unto the world." Volunteers spent many years transcribing their words. After much loving work by so many, they are now ready to be shared. We have done what we can. Now we need your help. Please help the angels give this gift of love the Father sent them to give. Give their words wings and let them go unto the world. Your help will be such a blessing. Thank you!

At the same time, 40% of food in the food system is WASTED! The need for our work has never been more vital. Food Rescue US is dedicated to reducing hunger and food waste (keeping food out of landfills and reducing greenhouse gasses). We engage volunteers and food donors through our proprietary web-based app to directly transfer nutritious excess food to social service agencies serving the food insecure. Food Rescue US is a national organization with 40+ sites across 20+ states and DC. Food rescuers pick-up excess food from local food donors, including grocery stores, restaurants, corporate dining facilities, and other food providers, and deliver it to local social service agencies providing for the food insecure. Rescuers use their own vehicles and select rescues scheduled at times that are convenient for them to pick-up and drop-off the excess food. The process is quick, simple, and incredibly rewarding. Interested in getting involved? Sign up at FoodRescue.us to start today and see a complete schedule of local food rescue opportunities.
