Volunteer oppotunity close to CHS

Jewish Family Services has a volunteer opportunity for high school students. It is located only a few blocks from CHS, so this could be convenient for students with some free time after school.

Specifically, they are looking for some help in their Refugee Resettlement department. It would involve helping their families apply for public assistance, and helping with set up and organization of case files. More adventurous students could also help with orientations or setting up apartments for arriving families.

If you are interested please, email Aaron Rubin at: aaron.rubin@jfsbuffalo.org
