L.A. Works

 In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr., this year we'll be serving at George Washington Carver Middle School. 

Impact: Studies have shown that student achievement can be affected either positively or negatively by the school environment. School beautification is a great way to increase morale and motivate students. Beautiful and clean facilities push students in the right direction by giving them an uplifting, positive space to work and grow in. They will come into school knowing that they're worth something because someone took the time to take care of a place they call home for eight or more hours of the day.
 
Project Leader Role & Responsibilities: Volunteer Leaders are the heart of our programming and contribute to the successes of our volunteer projects out in the community. Project leaders will manage a team of volunteers at the project site on the day of service to ensure projects get completed and the volunteers have a rewarding experience. Project leaders will be trained before the event.

Date: January 21^st, 2018

Location: George Washington Carver Middle School, 4410 McKinley Ave

Time: 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Waivers & Minors: All volunteers will need to fill out the LAUSD Waiver and the L.A. Works Waiver at the time of registration. Any volunteer under the age of 18 will need to bring and have signed by a parent/guardian an L.A. Works Volunteer Agreement & Release for Minors. Volunteers under the age of 14 must have a parent/guardian with them. Volunteers under the age of 14 cannot create L.A. Works Accounts so parents/guardians must create a Team to sign up their family.

Teams/Groups: We encourage groups to join us for the big day. Volunteers are assigned to projects on a first-come, first-served basis.
