Be a volunteer and make a difference in the life of a child... and in the life of our community

Each year, YES depends on the work of more than 400 volunteers who donate nearly 20,000 hours a year to help us build self-reliant youth, strong families and a safe, caring Eastside community. Our volunteers receive training and support, along with the deep satisfaction of knowing you're making a real difference in the lives of young people. Here are just a few ways you can help:
- Special Events. YES' annual Invest in Youth Breakfast is a fun, exciting event that relies on volunteers for everything from planning to setting up the venue for the big event. The next Invest in Youth Breakfast will be in March or April 2011 at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue.
- Repair and maintain computers. Help us troubleshoot technology problems and keep our computer equipment up to date. Flexible hours to fit your schedule.
- General Handyperson. Need someone able to change lightbulbs, fix cabinets, move furniture, remove grafitti and various other general maintenance. Having a truck would be very helpful for this job. Only a few hours a week, with flexible hours, on as as-needed basis.
- Mentor a student. Provide the continuity and caring that may be missing from a young person's life. Volunteer mentors in our SUCCESS program receive quality training, weekly support, monthly newsletters and activities. You'll be asked to devote two to four hours per week for at least one year to your mentoring relationship.
For more information about any of these volunteer opportunities — or to suggest other ways that you might help YES — call Jill at 425-747-4937.
