Are you looking for a way to give back to your community in a lasting and meaningful way?

We’ve all heard that it takes a village to raise a child--well your village needs you!

Roosevelt Middle School has an ongoing need for caring, motivated, and reliable volunteers. Roosevelt has many students from poor families. Having multiple positive adult role models while receiving a quality education can make a lifelong impact on a child and help lift them out of poverty. Let’s work together to change the outcomes of our children’s futures. Volunteering positions are available in these, and other areas:

  • Assisting students who are struggling academically
  • Supporting students with special needs
  • Mentoring students who need a positive adult role model
  • Assisting teachers and library staff with clerical tasks
