El Circulo Juvenil de Cultura is a not-for-profit community enterprise working with Hispanic/Latin@ children in Pittsburgh in order to assist in the preservation and development of their Spanish skills and cultural knowledge. We do this each term through workshops held at CMU or throughout the city.
El Circulo's Fall workshops will be 90-minute sessions held once each, on dates TBA between October and the end of the term. Most volunteers are native or hereditary Spanish speakers, or have an advanced command of the Spanish Language. Experience working with children ages 6-12 is a plus. They should be available for at least 1 of the sessions, and should have or be able to obtain Child Abuse and Criminal Clearances. (CMU may be able to assist in the process and cover part of the cost for CMU students).
Volunteers will devote the workshop to assisting the instructor/facilitator with the children. Other opportunities to volunteer "behind the scenes" for El Circulo include website/blog developer/writer, grant-writer, logistics/events coordinator, photographer/videographer, community liaison, etc.
Internship and academic credits are available for volunteers who are majors/minors in the Hispanic Studies program at CMU.
An orientation meeting for volunteers will take place on Friday, Sep. 13, 4:30-5:00 pm in the MLRC, Porter Hall 225C. (412) 268-2898. Please come to this meeting if you are interested in participating as a volunteer this term.
If you cannot attend, but would still like to volunteer, please contact me by replying to this email.
Please feel free to forward this email to anyone else who might be interested in participating.
Muchas gracias,
felipe
