Whether you have 1 hour or 4 hours, we have one-time volunteer opportunities that can accommodate your schedule.
Stuff the Bus School Supply Drive
Help provide new school supplies to students and families in need. Get involved by either hosting a school supply drive or by helping solicit donations at local H-E-B stores during our city-wide Stuff The Bus collection day. Volunteers are needed from June to August. Click here for more information about our Stuff The Bus School Supply Drive.
Reading Day
Get students excited about reading by participating in a Reading Day. Reading days typically begin with “coffee talk” with campus administration and are followed by four 15-minute classroom rotations. Volunteers read a book and engage in conversations to inspire students to read and build their knowledge. This is typically a two-hour event. Ideal for a group.
STEM Family Night Volunteer
Volunteer with our team during a STEM Family Night, where students experience hands-on activities involving science, technology, engineering, and math. This is typically a two-hour event. Ideal for individuals or groups.
Organize A Drive
Fulfill our students’ basic needs throughout their school year by organizing a drive. Our kids need items such as school uniforms, coats, shoes, hygiene products, blankets, and other items to keep them focused in school. Ideal for a group.
Holiday Giving
Provide gifts and meals to students who would otherwise go without during the holidays. Get involved by collecting coats, food baskets or presents. Ideal for a group.
