Volunteer Opportunities

Capernaum Young Life

I am serving as the Capernaum Young Life parent representative in Little Rock, AR.  Young Life is a nation wide Christian based organization for kids ages 14-23.  There are 7 different groups in Little Rock but Capernaum Young Life is for Special Needs Kids.  Capernaum has a need for Buddies to come be a part of our every other Thursday night hang outs starting in January when public schools begin next semester.   I thought of UCA. Students who are interested in pre- Allied Health fields, such as Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapies would get first hand experiences and involvement in the special needs community,  I believe it would be a win-win as it gives our friends at Capernaum Young Life a Buddy for their night. This will also give students hands on interactions with our friends.  We play games, sing, have karaoke, small Bible story and fun.

We meet about 6 times on Thursdays from 7-8 pm at St. Andrew’s Church off Bowman Ave Little Rock.   We need about 5 students to come be a Buddy each of the Thursdays. There is no requirements to sign up except to have a willingness and have a big heart.  We will show you what to do.
I have included several information forms about Young Life and will leave my contact information for questions.  Please contact me for any questions that I may can help I will look to you to proceed from here. Again,  I so appreciate you and your willingness to help. I have also included our Capernaum leader, Hayden Harvey, who is willing to talk with you as well. Thank you so much.
In Him,

Milestones Pediatric Therapy Trunk-or-Treat

This event is hosted by Milestones Pediatric Therapy Services and will be held on October 24, 2024 from 6:30pm – 8:30pm. Milestones Pediatric Therapy is an outpatient therapy clinic that serves ages birth – 21 years old in Cabot, AR.
They are asking for a few volunteers to set-up a themed trunk to pass out candy to the trunk or treaters. The clinic has a few themes from previous years if any volunteer is interested in using them. They are also welcome to get creative and decorate their trunk as they please (kid friendly, of course).
I have attached a sign-up link below as well as a flyer with an attached QR code to the sign-up link. If they have any questions, they are welcome to reach out to me, Alysia Cashion, at acashion1@cub.uca.edu.
Thank you!
