Helping Services Volunteers

    Helping Services for Northeast Iowa is offering a parenting class, Nurtured Heart Approach, which meets every Tuesday starting April 7^th and ending May 12th.  We are currently looking for volunteers for this event. The volunteers would be responsible for watching children while the parents are taking a parenting class. They will spend two fun hours with the children doing activities such as coloring, playing with blocks, reading books, playing games, and more. We ask that the volunteers arrive at 5:15 so they can help set up a simple dinner of sandwiches, veggies, etc. for the families. We would really like to have as many volunteers as possible; the more the merrier! Every evening they can volunteer helps!

Volunteers can call or text Lisa at (563) 880-9707 or email her at ljohanningmeier@helpingservices.org
