Hello everyone,

A homeless shelter that I've been volunteering at is in desperate need of help in these trying times. I'm posting a link to their website. If you can, please help them. I know this is a scary time, but we should help others who are at risk because of the pandemic. Anshe Chesed Men's Shelter

I don't have the economical possibility to pay you, but I will be forever grateful for your help. Thank you. Kind regards, Sara

Volunteer with ScriptEd and teach kids to code!

ScriptEd is an NYC-based nonprofit that engages professional developers on a volunteer basis to teach web development to students who attend under resourced high schools throughout NYC.

Volunteers teach twice a week for the school year (approximately late September through late May). Each volunteer is part of a four-person team, and is supported by one of ScriptEd’s staff members. We are still actively recruiting for classes, particularly for afternoon classes in Harlem and Queens, Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights.

Fill out a volunteer application at bit.ly/ScriptEdVolunteerNYC and a ScriptEd staff member will be in touch. Volunteering is a great way to meet like-minded people while helping youth access careers in tech. We’d love for you to join us!
