Description

Offers volunteer opportunities for those who would like to assist children who are aging out of the foster care system. Children are generally age 17 through 19 years of age. Launch Pad Sponsors are needed to provide activities that would assist the child in life after high school, such as assisting in obtaining driver's license or college preparation or visits. Volunteers may help with setting up a gift registry for foster children who are transitioning to college. "Launch Pad Host for Holidays" seeks volunteers to host a child during holidays (Summer, Winter, Spring breaks) during their senior year and college years.
