Connected to Organization --- not set --- Opportunity Title DescriptionThe <a href="http://www.jcrcboston.org/literacy">Greater Boston Jewish Coalition for Literacy</a> (GBJCL) is recruiting volunteers to help elementary school children discover the joy of reading by building meaningful relationships with a caring adult. Through partnerships with synagogues, Jewish community organizations, day schools, and businesses, GBJCL engages volunteers in school-based one-to-one reading tutoring, book drives, and advocacy efforts in high-needs schools. Participants include “empty nesters,” working professionals, at-home parents, retirees, and teens. Volunteers come from all backgrounds and do not need professional training in education nor are they required to be Jewish. GBJCL is a community engagement effort of the <a href="http://www.jcrcboston.org">Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Boston</a>. JCRC is a coalition of organizations and individuals that represents and advances the values, interests, and priorities of the organized Jewish community in Greater Boston through its network of agencies, programs and partnerships.
