Needs From: The Volunteer Center of Whatcom County

Volunteer: Call for Community Allies at WIHS!

Whatcom Intergenerational High School is the first public charter school in Whatcom County! We are a non-profit, mission-driven school focused on serving high school students from all backgrounds and life circumstances. This first year, we are opening to 9th and 10th grade (ages 13-16).

The Community Ally role is one where multigenerational community members from Whatcom County can volunteer to interact with high school students and fellow volunteers as each embarks on their own journeys of learning and growth. Student and community allies will have a communal responsibility of supporting each other in a holistic way, understanding that no part(s) of us are left out of a school environment and can have real impacts on our growth if not acknowledged.

In this role, volunteers will be able to participate in Morning Circle times, Phenomena Learning, off site excursions, and other WIHS events. We are looking for individuals who can donate 2 days a week for 2-3 hours a day. This person will also be invited to build relationships with current community allies through attending feedback sessions, appreciation gatherings, and cohort meetings. 

If you are interested in learning more about, or becoming an  Ally, please submit an interest form at: https://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/ap?AP=1889453455

Or feel free to respond to this listing.

 

Thank you for your dedication to our community, and we look forward to working with you!
