How to Volunteer
The Edina ABC scholars have mandatory study hours
each night from 7:30pm to 9:00pm. Volunteer tutors are present each night to help with math problems, review essays,
provide historical context for things our scholars learn about in school,
etc.
How could you become a
tutor?
If you live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and
would like to volunteer to be a tutor, please contact us for more information.
Each student has one or two host families. The
families voluntarily bring the scholars into their homes on Sunday
afternoons, some school vacations, and when they just feel like doing
family things together. Families pitch in to take the scholars school
shopping, to make runs to Target, and they attend football, basketball, and hockey
games,
go to the cabin for the weekend, play video games, etc. In other words,
they make the students feel like they have a "home away from home."
How could your
family become a host family?
If you’re interested in learning more about reaching
out to one of our scholars by becoming a host family, please contact us.
