African Family Health Organization
Tutor High School Refugees
Tutoring
Over Zoom, tutors will work with high school age refugees and immigrants on their remote work (weekdays 3-5pm)
African Family Health Organization is an organization in West Philadelphia that provides health and education services to African and Caribbean immigrants and refugees. During the school year, they run an after school program for mostly high school age students for homework help and general mentorship. The organization recently began an online version of this program, and it runs from 3-5pm Mondays through Thursdays over Zoom. Typically, tutors help in breakout rooms with homework. All of the students are ESL in the Philadelphia public school system and are struggling with the switch to online learning. Their English knowledge varies, but most speak French fluently.
Tutors can do as many days a week as desired, but tutors mustcommit to tutoring at least once each week to have consistency and build stronger relationships with the students. The tutoring will extend until the end of their school year, which is around mid to late June.

In addition, our program takes place entirely online so students can learn and receive mentoring while still engaging in social distancing.

Make and deliver 20 sandwiches for the Community Day Center of Waltham’s Tuesday program
The Tuesday Sandwich Makers is a project to help the Community Day Center in Waltham (CDCW) continue to serve a healthy lunch to their clients during this time of pandemic. CDCW is the only drop-in day program for homeless individuals in the Metrowest and until the pandemic, served a hot sit down lunch each weekday to their clients. But now they have adjusted to offering grab-and-go lunches. We ask that you/your group commit to making at least 20 sandwiches, but you can do all 40 as well. This is a perfect project for a youth group, teams of families, a class or just a group of friends wanting to pitch in. You can do it once, several times or on an ongoing basis. For everyone’s health and safety, makers must observe safe food handling practices and health guidelines that will be sent to you upon signing up.

Volunteers call senior citizens who want to see, talk to, email, or even play online games with a friendly face.
The impacts I have seen this organization make is astounding! The volunteers send updates on their experiences, and the seniors send emails of gratitude for the cards and new friends they made via audio calls. I can tell how much everyone, as well as myself, enjoy this and how it has developed into newfound friendships that can continue past quarantine.
We want to spread this joy to as many seniors as we can, but we need your help to do so. We have even partnered with many senior retirement communities and non profits, through which we make masks and cards to

We can’t send cards that have scary pictures on them.
• We need corresponding envelopes to whatever size cards you make. Unfortunately, we do nothave envelopes. When decorating the cards, please leave the inside panels blank so JF&CS staff can write a note in

CICOA Aging & In-Home Solutions
Friendly Phone Calls
Elderly
Telephone reassurance volunteers spread cheer by making friendly phone calls to assigned clients once weekly to check in with them and have a brief conversation!
At CICOA, we have volunteers calling about 200 seniors every week. They chat about the weather, about grandkids or memories of their youth. It may not seem like a lot, but simple gestures can be the difference between life and death.
Does that sound dramatic? Social isolation is a serious issue, and seniors are at the highest risk. Isolation isn’t about being alone; it’s about feeling lonely and disconnected. People who feel lonely may have weakened immune systems that have trouble fighting off viruses, which makes them more susceptible to infectious diseases. In addition to weakened immune systems, studies show that social isolation can increase someone’s risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, anxiety, depression, cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s disease, and even death.
Seniors—who are at the highest risk of COVID-19—need to stay home. Family, friends, and neighbors who once stopped by, can’t do that now. Seniors often don’t have the technology to participate in virtual calls. Many don’t drive, so they can’t participate in drive-by parades. Many are isolated, and many are anxious.
We know from research that when people engage in meaningful, productive activities with others, it boosts their mood, gives them a sense of purpose, and they tend to live longer. These activities seem to help maintain their well-being and may improve their cognitive function.
We want to do all we can to ward off depression and other risks associated with social isolation. While CICOA care managers regularly check on clients, they can’t call 11,000 clients weekly. Our telephone reassurance volunteers are helping to bridge the gap. While they make friendly calls, they also are watching out for those who are feeling down or sounding anxious. Volunteers report concerns so that care managers can take immediate action when needed.

If you report your cleanup to your local coordinator and/or record it on the CleanSwell app, all cleanups in September will be included as part of Coastal Cleanup Month. For safety reasons, there are no large, centrally organized cleanup sites this year. Instead, cleanups will be self-guided and close to home. Practice physical distancing, and strictly follow both local ordinances and this safety document. To learn more about cleanup efforts near you, contact your local county coordinator. Remember, beach cleanups start at your door. Thank you for staying safe, cleaning your neighborhoods, and protecting the coast!

Tutoring
Mentoring a young individual 2-4 times per month
Being a Big Brother or Big Sister is one of the most enjoyable things you’ll ever do. Not to mention, one of the most fulfilling. You have the opportunity to help shape a child’s future for the better by empowering them to achieve. And the best part is, it’s actually a lot of fun. You and your Little can share the kinds of activities you already like to do. Play sports together. Go on a hike. Read books. Eat a pizza with extra anchovies. Or just give some advice and inspiration. Whatever it is you enjoy, odds are you’ll enjoy them even more with your Little—and you’ll be making a life-changing impact. Volunteering just a few hours a month with a child can start something amazing. So why not apply to be a Big today. We have kids on our wait list just ready to get started. Join our team today!
