Background
We are upgrading our organisation website to a more audience-friendly as well as maintenance-friendly version. Along with the growth of organization, we would like to create a well-designed website to build our brand image for potential partners and donors. A carefully structured maintenance backend is also required as our team members might need to update our website content regularly to keep our audience engaged.

What we have
You will have access to our Wordpress backend, and our team members will be happy to assist you if you have any questions or issues.

Why this is important
In this digital world, a website is the front of an NGO. A well-designed and thoughtful website can let potential members and partners better understand our mission and cause. It will be a tremendous help when seeking grants, funding and donations.

The 2023 Adventure Challenge is Chicago Voyagers’ biggest outdoor fundraiser of the year. The Adventure Challenge is an amazing outdoor adventure obstacle race for adults and youth of all ability levels. This obstacle course is designed to give adults and kids an experience similar to our adventure therapy programs offered to Chicagoland teens in need of additional support through their local schools or community groups. Obstacles will challenge participants in the areas of agility, balance, problem-solving, and teamwork, but are appropriate for participants of different skill levels. Post-race celebrations include a light lunch and an awards ceremony highlighting our fastest racers and most creative teams.

Proceeds from this event help fund our adventure therapy programs throughout the year. Volunteers are needed to help set up and run each obstacle, registration, and clean-up. This is a great opportunity for individual volunteers and volunteer teams!

Please see our event page at https://www.chicagovoyagers.org/2022adventurechallenge for more information.

Horton’s Kids empowers children growing up in DC’s most under-resourced communities so that they graduate from high school ready for success in college, career, and life. We serve 600 children in grades K-12 living in Wellington Park & Stanton Oaks – neighborhoods that have been profoundly impacted by decades of disinvestment and barriers to opportunity.

Tutors assist the Youth Programs Team with executing high quality programs that serve kids in the after-school space. HK Volunteers will tutor participants, assist teachers as they deliver instruction, and provide general program support. You will also act as a consistent adult role model in the students’ lives who they can look up to and lean on for guidance.
