Volunteering

There are many ways to help kids succeed in school and prepare for life! Do you want to play a part in our success? Do you have time or talent to share with the youth of our nation? Do you want to start a CIS program in your home town?

    Work with a child as a tutor or mentor. See a complete list of CIS programs across the country and learn how you can share your experience, energy and enthusiasm to help young people succeed in school. It may make the critical difference in a young person's life.

  • Make a Connection with Your Local School
    Do you represent a community organization, agency, business or health care provider? Would the children in your local schools benefit from being connected to your colleagues and coworkers?
