Volunteer

North Kansas City Schools welcomes community volunteers in our schools! You can share your time to support our students in a way that works best for you. Serve as a mentor or tutor, guest speaker, career expert or event volunteer. The options are endless!

Become a YouthFriend

YouthFriends are volunteers who work directly with students in small groups or as mentors, or these volunteers can choose to help in school libraries and classrooms.
