JAM Volunteer Philosophy
At the JAM Center, we believe in the importance of lifelong learning. Volunteers help us learn by providing unique insight and we help them learn all the ways our programs impact people of all ages in the community. They give something special of themselves to make someone else’s life better. Our number one goal at the JAM Center is to impact the lives we touch, and we know this is only possible because of those who volunteer here – we couldn’t do this without them. We know that together we can do so much more.
“Volunteering at a place like the JAM Center brings me closer to my community and my friends. I love what the JAM Center is about.”
