VOLUNTEER HERE: Volunteer Opportunities in Woburn

Below you will find a list of currently available volunteer opportunities around Woburn.  The list is currently heavy on opportunities from SCI but we would like to add more…please email your volunteer listing to krice@socialcapitalinc.org

Do you have a skill to teach?

NuPath is looking for volunteers to teach classes to adults living with developmental disabilities. This is a great opportunity to share your talent with others and make a difference in the lives of the individuals we serve. Examples of classes needed are: photography, painting, money management, computer skills, cooking, etc. (the sky's the limit!)

Classes can be held during the weekdays, evenings, or weekends depending on the volunteers schedule. Although availability for multiple classes is preferred, we will gladly accomodate a volunteer who wants to teach a one-time class.

For more information, contact Jennifer Burns at jburns@sciwoburn.org or call (781)935-7057 ext. 3092.
