HGSE Looking for Spanish Speaking Volunteers
This seemed like a worthy cause so I thought I would post the info here for those of you that might want to volunteer to read to kids.

Volunteer to Read to Children in Spanish!
If you speak Spanish, like kids and enjoy volunteering, please join us! We are looking for Spanish-speaking volunteers for our reading program, Lectores y Amiguitos. Lectores y Amiguitos is a Spanish-language volunteer reading program run by Harvard Graduate School of Education’s Office of School Partnerships and Cambridge School Volunteers, Inc. We meet on Thursdays from 12:05-12:45 at the Amigos School, where volunteers read aloud and talk with second graders.
Volunteers are matched with 2nd graders and work one-on-one with them for the academic year. We follow Harvard University and Cambridge Public School holidays. Volunteers read every Thursday for 35 minutes during lunchtime and we ask for a one year commitment (October until early May).
The Amigos School is a dual language immersion Cambridge Public School located right outside of Harvard Square. To learn more about the Amigos School, please visit:
