Feeding bodies; feeding minds; feeding hearts

Homework Club

Tutors work one-on-one with children Kindergarten through 6th grade to help with homework and other learning activities. Tutors needed one day a week from 4 to 5:30 PM on Mon., Tues. or Wed.

Statistics consistently show that children who get enough to eat; have a safe, stable environment in which to play and learn; and are provided one-on-one attention, have a better chance at negotiating a difficult world in which many things are outside of their control. Homework Club provides kids another point of contact in addition to home and school; our aim is to ensure that each child hears that they matter at least once-a-day.

As with all ministries at Washington UCC, Homework Club seeks to meet people where they are and to love them with no other agenda. There is no proselytizing to children or an obligation for families to attend church services.

Homework Club is an engaging volunteer opportunity. On any given day, you can find retired teachers, local college and university students, nurses, and pastors providing tutoring help. We are always looking for new volunteers for the program, which runs from September through May. And you don’t have to do math if you don’t want to!
