The Warrior Club was established to help the athletes of Sherando High School through fundraising and events. Each year we solely raise money for Senior Scholarships and to help with the funding of the Athletic Department.
Even though the school budgets for team sports, it does not cover all that is needed for the athletes. That is where we come in.
The Warrior Club also awards scholarships to help those Senior athletes that choose to further their education after high school. We feel each athlete should have every chance to excel in their future endeavors.

“My attempts to make a positive difference in the lives of mothers and their families, during these difficult times, are intended as a gift to them, but the reality is that I get back as much as I give.”
Nankind Volunteer

Imagine a world where every family with cancer receives the care needed for their children – so they have enough time to care for themselves. Now, also imagine a world where every child receives the support they need to cope with their parent’s illness or death.

Nankind (Formerly, Nanny Angel Network) offers rewarding volunteer positions for skilled childcare providers who are looking to make a difference in the lives of families.



Virtual Angels provide supportive cancer care, by engaging children every week in homework-aid, educational and emotional support (Homework Club) OR age-appropriate 8 activities that are delivered for free monthly to the volunteers and families (Fun In A Box) to help the children navigate the changes that come with a cancer diagnosis and healthily address their emotions.

Nankind volunteers receive specialized training including grief and bereavement and receive the support of NAN’s Child Life Specialist throughout their volunteering time.

How can you help?

Are special skills needed? No special skills are needed. Our judge panels typically have a mixture of veterans and novice judges. 90% of what happens in judging is not dependent on any particular knowledge or personal skill of the judges


What? This is an all day Saturday volunteer opportunity. Judges are expected to do 1 to 2 hours of preparation-online. There is usually a short online conference call the week before the tournament.
What happens during the day? Judges will meet with two or three other judges in the morning and then interview five or six teams using a rubric to assess the teams for seven different awards. After the initial interviews, judges get together with the larger group and discuss their findings and how the teams rank in the seven different categories. Judges are then reassigned to one of those categories, based on their personal skills, and the top ranked teams are re-interviewed.

Comments from judges? As a first-time judge, participant, and observer of a FIRST competition, I can attest, without hesitation, to having experienced each of the latter. You owe it to the young minds that depend upon you, in addition to yourself, to embrace this opportunity to make a difference and to play it forward - the progress of the World will not wait, nor should you.”

I was blown away by the motivation, effort and ingenuity that these kids demonstrated through their presentations, engineering notebooks and robots. It's a great opportunity to serve as a volunteer judge and encourage these kids in their pursuit of STEM related activities."

Hello ADP employees!

UPchieve has a wonderful opportunity for you to support low-income students on your own time! You don't need previous tutoring experience. We'll provide all the resources you need to succeed! Visit www.upchieve.org/volunteer to sign-up

Did you know that only 9% of low-income students obtain their Bachelor's Degree by age 24?

At UPchieve we believe that every student should have access to the high-quality academic support they need to succeed. That's why we've created a free online platform for 24/7 tutoring and college counseling to help low-income students in the U.S. Using our website or mobile app students can request an Academic Coach and get help paired with a live volunteer tutor. There are over 20 subjects on the platform ranging from Math to Science, Reading & Writing, and U.S. History.

As a volunteer...

- You’ll work directly with motivated students who can’t afford private tutoring and often don’t have anyone to turn to for help.
- You can tutor from anywhere with an internet connection.
- You'll have complete control over your volunteer schedule. There are no shifts. Select your availability from a 24/7 calendar.
- You'll help the student improve their understanding and solve problems.
- You choose the subjects you want to tutor.

Here is what students are saying about their tutors:

- I LOVE UPCHIEVE!!! It has helped me very much with my Algebra 2 homework!! :)
- Amazing! Now I can start doing my homework with the correct knowledge :)
- LOVED THIS TUTOR! Very helpful and explained everything in a manner that I was able to understand!

Volunteer as a tutor and help low-income students succeed in high school and beyond!
