Opportunities From: VolunteerWNY

Volunteer: Volunteer, Tutors and Mentors Needed!

Picture it. A student sits down to complete their homework. They begin to struggle and are about to give up. But then you sit down ready to tackle and break down the first problem with them. You walk them through it. The student just isn't getting it. You re-explain it, just in a different way. And it clicks. You see the bulb light up. It finally makes sense. 

Are you looking for a rewarding volunteer experience? Are you interested in helping young students succeed?

Consider volunteering at the Seneca Street CDC!

We aim to provide our students with an outstanding after-school experience. We provide designated time during the After School program in which our students receive homework assistance from volunteers. Since some of our volunteers are from the University at Buffalo, we experience a true need for new volunteers in the month of January when college students are on their winter breaks.  But also needed through the year.   

After homework time students are divided into groups and participate in enrichment activities such as, Girls on the Run, Arts and Crafts, Academic Games, Gym and Computer Lab. The day wraps up in the dining room where the students are provided a free hot dinner before going home for the evening.

Our Afterschool Program operates Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday between 2:30pm and 5:30pm. Please feel free to contact Beth Ewen for more information at bewen@senecastreetcdc.org. or call 716-939-3501

We also run a Summer Program for 6 weeks Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday between 9am and 1:00pm, please feel free to contact the above person Beth Ewen.    Thank You for Finding us
