Today’s young people need a strong foundation for making intelligent, lifelong, personal financial decisions. As a volunteer with JA Finance Park, you will help students navigate the world of personal finances as they assume the role of an "adult for the day."

At JA Finance Park, students are given a unique life profile after answering a series of future lifestyle questions. Their life profile includes an income, marital status, even kids! Using this new adult persona, students work to create a balanced monthly budget while making decision regarding housing, transportation, insurance, savings, entertainment expenses and much more.

Volunteers are needed to mentor small groups of students throughout their day at JA Finance Park . No special budgeting expertise or preparation is necessary and thorough training is provided for all volunteers on the day of the event!

For more information contact Audrey Del Prete at adelprete@jasocal.org.

Thank you in advance for your consideration of our volunteer request for our spring fundraising event. We are the DeKalb Music Boosters, and we are a 501(c)3 charitable organization. Our mission, as the primary advocate for the middle school and high school music programs in DeKalb, is to serve and assist the music performance programs, their students and their directors. As Music Boosters, our overall purpose is to bring to students an appreciation of making music a lifelong activity.

We provide supplemental funding and volunteer service to the high school and middle school music programs. We support all orchestra, band and choir ensembles at the schools. 100% of the donations we receive go towards supporting these programs. Donations are used to purchase instruments, music or equipment or to offset travel expenses for music groups to participate in competitions and festivals. DeKalb Music Boosters operates on a completely volunteer basis. Our members all donate time and resources to make funding possible.

Our 2nd Annual Kentucky Derby Night - Hats Horses & Harmony fundraiser is on April 14, 2018, and it will have a silent auction, musical performances and simulated horse races with prizes. All proceeds from our fundraiser go towards achieving our goals mentioned above. We are seeking volunteers that can assist with set up for the event at River Heights Golf Course at 1020 Sharon Dr, DeKalb from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and/or to assist at the event itself for ticket sales and silent auction monitoring from 5:00 p.m. till 10:30 p.m. whatever 3 hour shifts you want to set (we have flexibility in shifts).

The event will be open to the public and will mostly benefit our student body in providing a social event for our students prior to graduation-but also marketing our school to the public. I do not have a picture because this will be the first time that we hold the event to try to tie our students and community together to raise school spirit!

Friends of Music (FOM) will co - present the Orchestra of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School at a free concert to be held at Arts Park in Hollywood, Florida. Supporting Music and Music Education in our community is the mission of FOM and, obviously, presenting a high school music performance satisfies this objective. It gives the students the opportunity to perform at a location other than their school. However, at this particular time, it also affords the students who lost friends and teachers in the massacre on February 14th, the opportunity to have a wee bit of normalcy in their lives and the demonstrated support of the Florida population.
Volunteers will distribute programs, usher, help with set up/take down, greet. Most importantly, just being there will show their support of the students and faculty in this trying time.
