Volunteering at Hands-on House is a great way for teens to gain valuable work experience, learn responsibility, work with young children, make new friends and give something back to their community while having fun. It’s also a terrific way to earn service learning credit for school, church or scouting.

Volunteers must be in the 8^th grade (or older) for the 2010-2011 school year. Volunteers attend a two-hour orientation session and are expected to volunteer a minimum of 20 hours over the summer months.

Summer teen volunteers participate as camp aides for Summertime Station, our special summer camp program for children ages 4-7. Camp aides work directly with the young campers, assisting with projects and activities while having great fun! Volunteer shifts are 8:30am – 12:30pm, Monday through Friday. Volunteers are asked to commit to one or more full weeks.

We currently have enough teen volunteers for the summer of 2010. If you fill out the volunteer application form, we will send you information in the spring of 2011 for next summer.

For more information, contact Jessica Martin at (717) 569-KIDS or complete and return the volunteer application form.
