Opportunities From: Volunteer Spokane

The Love Box program provides foster families with community and holistic support so that they can continue to do the important and meaningful work of being a foster parent. As a Love Box group, you will be matched with a local foster family based on compatibility and scope of needs. When our families are matched with committed volunteers that show up monthly, parents feel supported, and children gain a sense of belonging and self confidence. This program requires a one year commitment. 

Our Dare to Dream program offers an opportunity to mentor a youth in foster care or youth who has aged-out of foster care (ranging from 15-21 years old). Our mentors are advocates, coaches, teachers, guides, role models, valued friends, available resources, cheerful critics, and career enthusiasts. The heart of the Dare to Dream program is to give foster youth a second chance. Many of the youth we recruit are living in emergency shelters or are homeless. They need the wisdom, advice, encouragement, and community that mentors can provide. As a mentor you commit to meeting with your mentee every other week, set goals, and help them achieve their dreams. The program is a one year commitment; however, it is our hope that these relationships will last a lifetime.
