start volunteering, they are required to get a TB (tuberculosis) test done.
This is required by some of the agencies. This can be done at McKinley for
free. No appointments are required. This test is done at the immunization
center where you will receive a shot for a skin test and you will have to go
back 2-3 days later to be evaluated. After being evaluated you will
receive a verification paper, which you need to bring with you the first time
that you volunteer. To get more information just call </span><i style=""><font size="4"><u style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><b>333-2700</b></u></font></i></p>

are coming from difficult situations. The home takes in women for two years and
helps them get back on their feet. Most of the women who are accepted into CWIT
have kids and part of this agency’s program is to plan activities for the
children to do in their spare time. Children range from babies all the
way up to pre-teens.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"> Volunteers

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">Crisis Nursery is a center where
parents can drop off their children last minute when something comes up in
their life and they need to have someone care for their children for a
short period of time. They are open Monday through Sunday from
7-10. When volunteering at this agency you will be assigned a child that
is your responsibility. The children are often coming to the nursery from
traumatic situations and are in need of extra special care. Volunteers
have to attend an orientation and have a background check done. Orientation
should take about an hour and a half. At the orientation every volunteer
will be given forms to fill out. These are just background checks and should
not take more than 10 mins to fill. Crisis Nursery is not located on
campus; however there is public transportation that can get volunteers there.
Or you could also walk, its 5 blocks north of Goodwin and Green. Volunteers are
required to have TB testing.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">MQCCC serves
children ages six weeks to five years from low-income households in which parent(s)
is/are working or attending school. Childcare fees are sliding fee scale based
on income and family size. During the morning hours the teachers have planned
activities for the children to do. After nap time the children may go outside
or they might have a structured free time. A volunteer may be asked to center
or the water table. VIP might have some planned activities that they would
probably like to do for the kids. The volunteers would be assisting the
teachers in the classroom and outside on the playground. One or two vol. will
be assigned to the Birth to Three programs and one or two to the preschool
program. The center is open 11 hours a day 6:30 am - 5:30 pm M-F. The best
times are 6:30 am - 12 noon & 2:30 - 5:30 pm. All volunteers must have a TB
test prior to starting. <span style=""> </span>You can
get there by taking 6E orange from the Union. We’ll be having a particular
volunteering slot for this agency where you’ll be provided transportation back
and forth. Besides that you could take public transportation, you could take
the 6E orange or 5E green. Our coordinator

is on the corner of Green and Goodwin connected to the Methodist Church (it is
in walking distance). Volunteers are needed MWF only in the mornings from
around 8-12 since school is only half the day there. Volunteers help the
preschool and pre-K<br>
teachers with activities. So it is perfect for those looking to go into something in the lines of Education/Child development.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"> Volunteers play
games, read, do arts and crafts, etc. with the children. The 5 Green bus will
take you to this location or one can walk if they would like to, it’s about a
10 minute walk east down Green Street. </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">Usually
volunteers volunteer about 2 hours per week (1 shift per week). But if a
volunteer would like to volunteer more than that they are more than welcome to.
