They help to connect partner churches with the children and the host churches. One cannot walk away from a day at Project Transformation unchanged, as God is working in all of our lives as we build relationships with these children. In the summer, volunteers are needed at each of the sites to read with the children. Project Transformation participates in the Dallas Summer Reading Program in which each child will read for 30 minutes a day. This is an enriching experience for both the child and the volunteer.
Volunteers can also participate in the summer by providing and serving snacks to the children.
In addition, many volunteers have enjoyed participating in recreation with the children or providing afternoon activities. Church youth groups are great in providing recreation and afternoon activities for the children. During the school year, volunteers will be utilized to continue providing and serving snacks as well as participating in many other areas. Sufficient, healthy snacks will be desired for the after school programs, and loving hands will be needed to distribute the snacks to each child. The after school programs will provide a 45 minute time for homework or reading, and volunteers will be needed to come and help a child with homework or simply to read with a child who has no homework.
