Volunteer Reflections 

Overall Experience    Experience rating
Great kids, amazing staff

I am a volunteer in the after school homework club. The kids are fun, engaging, and challenge me every week. I think the staff members at ONG are great and make the organization a success.

The hour I spend each week mentoring my student is the most rewarding and powerful hour of my week.

I tutor a second-grader every Wednesday night. First we work through her homework and then read and discuss a book from their Literacy Enrichment program. Although our work is often serious, we laugh a lot and sometimes color together. I get a lot of joy from doing this work, and I know that I am making a difference in this child's life. I believe that we can overcome the effects of poverty by helping one child at a time.

A joy to tutor bright, energetic children

It has been most gratifying to provide help to young under privileged students who otherwise might not have had the opportunity to express their talents. To see them succeed and develop, has been for me, a joy.

    Academic Mentors provide a window to the world.   

volunteers with studentsvolunteer and student

Volunteer mentors motivate and coach their mentees to create and achieve their dreams. Mentors are matched with individual students (or a small group of 2-4 students) and commit to at least one hour a week of in-person visits at our neighborhood center.

This is not a financial commitment, but rather an opportunity to expose a child to new cultural and educational experiences outside their communities.

Other volunteer opportunities include chaperoning field trips, reading to younger children, helping with special events and projects, helping to keep our computers running, helping with the after school snacks, and many more activities.
