Foster Grandparent Program: Become a VolunteerOur volunteers are mentors, tutors, and supporters of at-risk children with special needs or circumstances. Foster Grandparents work in designated volunteer stations in schools, child day care centers, head start classes and after school clubs. As a Foster Grandparent, you receive a non-taxable hourly stipend, transportation reimbursement, internet reimbursement, monthly specialized training, and the opportunity to form lasting friendships with other volunteers—in addition to the satisfaction of knowing that you are providing a caring, positive influence in the lives of children. Volunteer 5 to 40 hours each week. |
