Be a Volunteer

**Special note: If you want to volunteer you must attend the Volunteer Orientation and the next Volunteer Orientation is scheduled for Tuesday, July 29 at 9 AM in the Drees conference room.

Five students need your proofreading and editing expertise! We are looking for volunteers with experience in Word, Excel and PowerPoint who have a good understanding on grammar and spelling and creating resumes and cover letters. Volunteers will help adult clients finalize their graduation portfolios, which they will in turn present to potential employers. Volunteers are needed Monday-Thursday from 9am-11:30am, but anytime you can donate is appreciated. Students are striving to complete their portfolios for the 31st.  

Thank you for your interest in being a Redwood volunteer! Please fill out the volunteer application below.  If you would prefer, you can download the application by clicking here.
