Computer Labs for Kids: Volunteers Needed for Dallas!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

My friend, Shira Evans, needs another 14 volunteers for the next class of Computer Labs for Kids in Dallas, Texas, on March 20, 2010.  (Photo: Shira Evans [standing] with volunteers and students at the Los Angeles class on February 6, 2010).

If you are in the Dallas area, please consider volunteering half a day.  I was a volunteer in November, 2009 for the Chicago class and I had the most wonderful time!  You don't have to be a computer expert - just know how to operate one - the basics - and be willing to work one on one with a child for half a day.  The kids are so great - my experience as a volunteer in Chicago was very rewarding and fulfilling, and I met some fantabulous people.  Please volunteer - you won't be sorry, I promise. 

Host: Shira Evans
Location: Buckner Children and Family Services
5200 Buckner Blvd
Dallas, TX 75227 US
When: Saturday, March 20, 9:30AM to 12:30PM
Phone: 626-408-2390
