Afterschool

Afterschool is one of the CSC’s longest running programs, and was originally called the Youth Tutoring Program.

Volunteers travel to various schools and community centers in Greater Boston to offer tutoring, one-on-one homework assistance and creative activities for students grades preK-12. The program allows volunteers to interact with the community, create lasting friendships with fellow volunteers and mentor the children they work with.

Time commitment is 2-4 hours per week for an entire semester. Previous experience with children is not required, and training will be provided before volunteering. Volunteers are assigned to a site and volunteer with other BU students.

Some of Afterschool’s sites include Edison Middle School, Salvation Army Day Care and New Mission High School.

All sites are accessible by public transportation.
