A 12-week volunteering program for high schoolers and campus students.
StepUp is made up of communication workshop, guest speaker workshop, interest classes volunteering and special projects.
It is a 12-week volunteering program for high schoolers and campus students.
Volunteers are put in teams and are rotated every 4 weeks for a broad and enriching experience.
*Must have stable 4 weeks attendance and pass interview first.
Started in the Summer of 2021 to present. Each Term is 12 weeks. We have had 6 Terms every Sunday from 11:45am – 1:15pm.
Communication Workshops
Workshops are used to train volunteers in their character, attitude and expression.
Through these workshops, volunteers can gain invaluable skills to express in small groups or before entire classes of people! Giving volunteers the confidence to work with children and skills that go beyond the classroom.
Team Building
We can achleve far more workling together than when we work alone.
With guidance from your team leader, teams of volunteers undergo team building exercises.
Over the next 12 weeks, you will rely on one another to lead Gr1-3 or Gr4-7 Interest Classes.
Guest Speakers Professionals
Professional individuals come to StepUp to share their experiences with our volunteers.
Learn new career paths, and immerse into real-life experiences told by our guest speakers.
We thank our volunteer speakers for their expertise and time.
