Teens and College Students, Join the JVC for a Summer of Service

Attention, teens and college students! If you’re looking for a way to add meaning to your summer, join the Jewish Volunteer Center of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation and other teens from around Miami for Summer of Service.

Business offices, hospitals, summer camps, schools, social-service agencies and Federation are looking for teen and college-aged volunteers to help them during the summer months. All of the volunteer opportunities are available on a regular basis during the week and/or on Sundays. You can also log community service hours with all of these activities.

So don’t spend the summer bumming around texting, tweeting and Facebooking; spend it doing a mitzvah and contribute your time to the community!

Whether you are a student looking for a summer volunteer opportunity or a business seeking volunteers, please contact Laura Guren Rodriguez, Director of the Jewish Volunteer Center, at 786.866.8680 or [email protected].
