When and where
We do not know the schedule yet. Ask the group.
We do not have a meeting place for this group yet.
Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Email commschools@phila.gov or call 215-683-6012 and ask how to sign up for a volunteer project..
What to expect
The city's pages do not describe what a volunteer day looks like. Ask the Community Schools office what a specific project involves, where it happens, and how long it lasts before you commit.
Tips for your first visit
- Confirm the school, the address, and the start time before you go.
- Ask whether the project needs a background check or clearance.
Newcomer welcome
Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The city lists a public phone line and email, but its page does not say how volunteers sign up, and the project listing could not be reopened today..
