The first volunteer training event at Baltimore’s Hampden Elementary/Middle School #55 went so well, the staff is running it again on September 7 at 1:30 p.m.
Swing by and hear about all the opportunities available this year, which feature recording books on CD, dividing up servings of produce from the federally funded fresh fruits and vegetables program, and being a grown up presence in the cafeteria. (Lunches run 10:45 a.m.-11:30 a.m. for the little ones and 12:25 p.m.-1:10 p.m. for the middle schoolers. Then there’s dinner from 3:30-4:30 p.m.) A friend in the know told me every volunteer hour has a value of around $21 to a city school. I guessed it was more like $200. Because that’s how much it’s worth to me.
