Get Involved to Help Our Students (Online) This Thursday!

Want to help our students? Why, thank you! We have a fun, easy way you can volunteer to help our kids by sending them encouragement during this tough year. On April 8, you can come learn how to do it at our online April Volunteer Evening. At this online event, we will get you started with our Notes of Encouragement Volunteer Campaign. Notes are just short messages to encourage our students as they work hard in school.

Show Some Love! Volunteer...

You may not be that into all the hearts and flowers this month, but there’s a better way to show your love — through volunteering! This month, Mali Rising is offering two options to help spread the love through our volunteer project and we hope you’ll join in the fun. Each short online event — we call these Volunteer Evenings — will focus on one, specific volunteer opportunity. We will provide all the information you need to get started and answer any questions you may have.

But what if that walk could clear your head AND build a school? With Miles for Mali, it can!
