Volunteer Opportunities at Local Elementary School
Pioneer Elementary and Sanchez Elementary schools in Lafayette need tutors and classroom helpers for Elementary school students.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact one of our CU volunteer coordinators: Ryan at Ryan.Grover@Colorado.edu or Amy at Amy.keighley@Colorado.edu.
If you are interested, we would ask that you be able to commit to helping out 3 - 4 times during the semester.
This is a great place to come up with ideas for your final project! (You can use your experiences at the school to build your final project.)
