SUBJECT: Service Hours Opportunity

 

Troop 1299,

Are you staying in town for Spring Break?  Would you like some service hours?  If so, see below message from Jenna Sampson, Director of Children at Dallas LIFE, an organization that helps homeless families get back on their feet.

Although we are not organizing this as a Troop-led event, feel free to reach out to Jenna at jsampson@dallaslife.org and be sure to include your full name, birth date, and cell phone number so that she can run a background check.

Caleb and I have both volunteered at Dallas LIFE and it is a heartwarming experience to see the smiles on the children's faces.

This opportunity has been approved for service hours by Mr. Bergthold.  Before you go, be sure and bring the Troop 1299 Service Hours form for someone from Dallas LIFE to verify and sign.

YIS,

Mr. Ellison

Subject: Help Needed - Spring Break Childcare

 

Hi folks,

Winter is almost over and Spring Break is coming up quickly! Our children are out of school from March 12th-16th and we are looking for volunteers to come and spend time with them during the day. Rooms available to volunteer in include our nursery, play room, art room, and teen room. This is a great opportunity to bring positive energy into a child's life and make great memories! 

Shifts are two hours long with two serving opportunities available - 9AM to 11AM and 1PM to 3PM. To sign up for these times, log in to our volunteer page and look for "Children's Winter Events" and you will see slots with the note "Spring Break Childcare".

All volunteers must be over the age of 14. Volunteers who are under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. If you know someone who may be interested but is not an approved Dallas LIFE volunteer, please have them send an email with their full name, birth date, and cell phone number to Jenna Sampson at JSampson@DallasLIFE.org.

If you have any questions about this great opportunity, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. More details will be sent to volunteers who sign up. Thank you for all that you do to improve the lives of those working towards being homeless no more!

Have a wonderful week,
Jenna Sampson
Director of Children
Dallas LIFE
