    Description

    Safety Education at Community Events

    Kids and Car Safety is looking for volunteers to help host an educational table/exhibit at safety events and conferences in Kansas and Missouri. Events would be local to the Kansas City Metro area.

    Volunteers will train with KACS staff to learn about the dangers children face in and around vehicles to be able to educate families and other professionals at events. KACS will provide all of the supplies and resources necessary to set up a nice display with education materials to hand out to families.
