The Positive Impact of Volunteering as a FAMILY
Purpose + Meaning
We all need a sense of purpose + meaning in our lives. Including our kids. Getting out into the community to do hands-on service provides meaning beyond school, sports + extracurriculars.
Volunteering together provides an opportunity for family conversations about community needs, insight into your kids interests + screen-free time working together to solve a societal issue.
Participating in give-back volunteering builds empathy + compassion in our kids. We can develop kids who will see a need, work to solve it + put more good into the world.
(Plus, colleges now look at kids community involvement.)
Kid Volunteers work alongside their families to craft Tucson into a KIND(er) community. Our give-back projects focus on these impact areas:
Homelessness +
Food Insecurity
Arts +
Culture
Environment + Sustainability
Health + Wellness
Community Beautification
Awareness + Empathy
The younger the child is exposed to volunteering and charity then giving back becomes a habit. And those habits become the foundation for our community’s future leaders and activists.
