Individual Volunteering

If you’d like to become a volunteer, please fill out the volunteer information form. Once we receive the completed form, we will be in touch regarding volunteer opportunities that match your interests.

EW is committed to providing a safe environment for children. In compliance with the Pennsylvania Child Protective Services Law, EW requires a Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance (free) and a Pennsylvania State Police Criminal Record Check (free) for all volunteers who may have direct contact with children. If the volunteer has not lived in Pennsylvania for ten years or if volunteer’s permanent residence is outside Pennsylvania, an FBI Fingerprint Clearance ($27.50) is required.

CLICK HERE for instructions and links to apply for these three clearances.

Clearances are good for a period of five years.

The volunteer is responsible for completing each background check application and submitting the results to EW, where the records will be stored to protect confidentiality. Please email clearances together at one time to info@educationworks.org or mail them together to:

EducationWorks
Attn: Volunteers
990 Spring Garden Street, Suite 601
Philadelphia, PA 19123

Important: Please make sure you retain a copy of each background check for yourself. The original clearances are yours to keep and may be used to apply for volunteer (unpaid) positions with other organizations. If you have clearances that are less than one-year-old, you may use them instead of securing new clearances.

We realize that these requirements present additional “work” for the volunteer. Hopefully, you will not be discouraged from participating as an EW volunteer, because the benefits children receive from interacting with EW volunteers are invaluable for the future. The goal is to ensure a safe environment for children in compliance with Pennsylvania State Law.

If you have any questions about the requirements and the process, please contact me at jacquiepatterson@educationworks.org.

Corporate Volunteering

EW welcomes corporate groups to volunteer with our programs to make a lasting change. EW will work with you to develop a plan that meets your needs and capacity. Additionally, companies are invited to work with the professional staff at EW to create innovative marketing programs. Your support of EW provides a visible demonstration of your commitment to the improvement of the greater Philadelphia region. All packages are customized. Please contact Jacquie Patterson, Chief Advancement Officer at jacquiepatterson@educationworks.org.
