Sunlight Volunteers, we could not do it without you! Youth volunteers make a great impact here at Sunlight Village. Youth can get volunteer hours for school credit and help our youth at the same time.
These services help to supplement our operations and are required for continued funding. Assistance is needed in classrooms, teaching children in the home, equipment donations, supplies, space, and advisory committees/councils. Time donated by professionals for the training of staff or parents also qualifies.
During the regular school year (We follow Dayton Public Schools’ schedule), NBFY offers an after-school enrichment program for students in kindergarten through 8th grade.
At NBFY, we care about the welfare of young people and want to see them succeed. To that end we provide mentoring opportunities for caring adults who are willing to dedicate themselves to our program requirements.
There are currently more than 170 nursing homes and assisted living facilities in the region served by the Dayton office of the Long-term Care Ombudsman. This office could not possibly serve the needs of these citizens without help from its volunteers, and they are seeking volunteer advocates.
We host COPEs all across the country, and are always looking for dedicated individuals to volunteers as Resource Leaders for COPE.
When children and teens have the influence of a caring adult, they are more likely to avoid risky behaviors and to focus on academics. Today’s youth face a variety of challenges, and being matched with a Mentor can help them navigate these challenges and reach their potential.
There are many volunteer opportunities available and we would gladly discuss our volunteer program with you. Full training and mentorship is provided for our volunteers so you can best help the women who need you.
