Volunteer and Make a Difference!

The light of a lantern can bring hope and courage when life seems  challenging. Volunteers at Presentation Lantern Center give a helping hand as tutors, board members, donors and partners. Many individuals give newcomers a friendly hand for navigating in a new culture.  We also have occasional special event volunteer opportunities.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

  • Become a tutor of English language learners.
  • Assist a student in preparing for the U.S. Citizenship test.
  • Assist newcomers in developing “life skills” in a new culture, such as cooking, shopping and direction-determining.
  • Celebrate with students and other volunteers at social events.
