Meal Teams
Each day during Elementary and Middle-High School programming we provide a snack and meal to our students. We are always looking for additional help when providing these meals! Grab your team and help us make sure or students go home with full bellies.
Mentoring
Build a meaningful one-on-one relationship with a Dream Center student through consistent encouragement, support, and presence. Mentors walk alongside students over the course of a year, offering guidance and care in a Christ-centered relationship.
Learning Clubs
Learning Club Leaders guide a small group of students through a hands-on introduction to a topic or skill. Clubs run for six weeks and are designed to spark curiosity and creativity. It is a 1.5-hour commitment each week! Examples include cooking club, tennis club, science club, and more.
Bible Study
Leaders gather with a student group for Bible study, discussion, and prayer, helping students grow spiritually and build faith-centered communities. A bi-weekly or monthly commitment for an individual who enjoys discussion, mentoring, and walking with students in their faith journey.
