    • Assist with reading, homework, and developmental exercises
    • Engage children in creative play, educational projects, and field trips
    • Foster positive relationships with children, program staff, and fellow volunteers
    • Provide consistent support and encouragement to children who may lack a regular older adult connection

    • Age 55 or older
    • Resident of San Francisco
    • Available to serve 10–20+ hours per week
