Volunteer as a Tutor at SAY Play
More than 150 students are registered for fall SAY Play programming and we are in need of extra volunteers to serve as tutors in the D.E.E.P. (Digital Educational Enrichment Program). Before students can move on to West African drum and dance, fashion fundamentals, screenwriting workshop, exploring photography and other fun activities, they must complete their homework and get organized for the next day of school!
SAY Play is a great place and it is making a difference in the community – it is part of the community. It gives youth the opportunity to be safe, relieve stress, learn, and play. The students are our future. I love being part of SAY Play, it lets me give back to the community by doing what I love.
