Volunteer Opportunities
Are you looking for a way to use all your education and experience to
help further the work of Aslan Youth Ministries? If you are, then we have
a number of wonderful opportunities for you to become involved. Society
as a whole and our inner cities specifically are besieged by problems.
Ninety percent of our Aslan kids do not have a father in their lives.
Most of their mothers are hard working individuals, but it’s hard
to make ends meet and have energy left for your children. It’s extremely
difficult to support yourself on a minimum wage (even living in the
public housing projects), and it’s almost impossible to support
2 or 3 children as well! That’s why the programs of Aslan are so
important. The mothers of our children know that when their kids are with
Aslan they’re safe and they’re being loved. We aren’t
just a latch-key program that throws a ball out for the kids to “kick
around.”
Aslan’s volunteer force is critically important to our success.
Each year over 300 talented individuals give of their many talents to
enrich the work of Aslan and our children. These men and women serve as
mentors, tutors, Right Choices Bible Class teachers, coaches, bicycling
personnel, chaperones and on and on! Other volunteers serve in myriad
ways, including: in our office (working on mailings, answering phones,
entering data); helping with our Haiti Project; as Board members; on our
Development Board; helping with special fund raising events (Island Nights,
Vision Dinner & the Aslan Golf Classic); providing holiday parties
for our youth; as special speakers at churches, organizations and businesses;
and the list goes on and on!
