School Site Partnership

URBAN ACT Academy is our neighborhood boundry school. One of our values is to be wholistic in our approach and we want to support the children during the school day as well. This opportunity takes place during the school day. If you are able to give an hour a week of your lunch time we would love for you to volunteer tutoring a Kindergarten student at UAA. Check out our School Site Volunteer Description.

Short Term Volunteer Opportunities

There are a variety of short term volunteer opportunities that require a small commitment of time.  During IPS school breaks we offer “express yourself” enrichment camps focused on the arts. If you have a special talent in art, photography or cooking or would like to volunteer as a helper contact Heidi Lyda to inquire about the theme and dates at heidi@lynhouse.org. An additional opportunity is to be a basketball coach during the winter season.
