We are seeking volunteers who care about our mission in empowering underserved, under-resourced middle schooler's at sites across LA in need of our SEA (Successful Educational Achievement) Program. We provide a comprehensive approach incorporating academic tutoring and caring mentorship to struggling/failing middle school students in the mainstream classroom.
SEA Program participants could not otherwise afford the essential support we provide.
As a member of the Emily Shane Foundation fundraiser event committee, you will participate to your desired degree of involvement with planning and preparing for our twice yearly fundraiser events. You can take on as much as little as you choose, depending on your availability and schedule. We present two very different fundraising events each year. The next one will be our annual, gala event - "Wings Over Malibu" (our symbol is a butterfly), and will take place the evening of Thursday, April 23rd, 2026. We have yet to determine anything more than the date, a hired live auctioneer and will present an accompanying online silent auction.
Note: you can help remotely, as our meetings are held via Zoom. It would be ideal if the volunteer can come to Malibu for the event to help out when it is taking place, and possibly be able to help with any preparing of physical items for the auction - such as wrapping auction items in baskets, etc. as the event draws close. We are open to whatever is possible!!
