Want to make an IMPACT?
If you have a heart for children and want to help students succeed, we need:
- A Lay Leader for our partner elementary schools. The leader will work with the administration team to see how St. Luke’s can help the school meet its goals.
- In-classroom volunteers.
- Maxey Elementary school has shared that they have 4 teachers interested in getting in-classroom assistance to help with reading and math. They are PreK (1) and Kindergarten (3) classrooms.
- Mollie Ray has shared a need for mentorships for students to help advise children about opportunities and experiences outside of their own.
- Event coordinators. Maxey and Mollie Ray organize events for students, families and teachers.
We do a 1.5-hour orientation with volunteers at St. Luke’s before sending them to the school. This is to help ensure that you are well-prepared and informed before heading into the classroom or at the schools.
What’s it’s like to be an IMPACT volunteer
IMPACT volunteer Joan Weninger and her granddaughter
Hi St. Lukers!
Joan Weninger here! My husband and I have been members of St. Luke’s for four years. I’ve been asked to tell you why I enjoy volunteering at Maxey Elementary.
From the time I walk down the hall and into a classroom I feel joyful and grateful to have the opportunity to serve. I can’t believe I’m doing the Lord’s work! But that’s the nature of God. Whatever you do in His name, the more He gives back and I sure feel it!
Children are always thrilled to have someone walk into their classroom who cares enough to spend the time to be a cheerleader for them.
So, who wants to give and receive some joy?
If you are interested in helping as an IMPACT leader, an in-classroom volunteer or to help coordinate events at our partner schools, please contact Saniye Kazan at skazan@st.lukes.org.
