Welcome Back! | 2022-2023 School Year Volunteer Needs

Hello all,

It's hard to believe summer is nearly gone, kids are so nearly back in school, and it's time to start the volunteer hustle again! Personally, I've stepped away from the PTSA Co-President role this year but am sticking around to help identify and schedule volunteers as we work together to meet the needs of our South Shore community. I look forward to connecting with each of you in the coming days and weeks and invite anyone to reach out with questions or feedback anytime.

First things first - if for any reason you wish to be taken off this volunteer list, please just reply to volunteer@southshoreptsa.org and I'll remove you right away.

Next, thank you to everyone who has already taken the time to complete our brief volunteer survey PTSA distributed in the spring to help us better match folks with opportunities they are interested in. If you haven't done so yet, please head over to the South Shore PTSA Volunteer Support Survey and respond today. We have many roles available but in particular need to identify folks interested in supporting Coffee Chat, Communications, Membership, and Fundraising + Grants.

In addition to ongoing committee positions, we have a few time sensitive and upcoming one-time volunteer needs:

• Tuesday, September 6th (8:00-10:00 AM) @ South Shore - Help show appreciation to our incredible South Shore Staff as we set up and serve breakfast to welcome them back to school. Sign up here.

• Thursday, September 29th (6:00-8:00 PM) @ South Shore - In-person member meetings are back! Help set up and clean up before and after the meeting. Sign up here

• Thursday, October 27th (6:00-8:00 PM) @ South Shore - It's time for our second annual Trunk or Treat and Snack Drive. To supplement snack donations in every classroom and have some fun doing it, we need folks to host trunks and help collect snack donations. Sign up here

• School days (10:00 AM-12:00 PM or 12:00 PM-1:30 PM) @ South Shore - It's a new year and there are new lunch shifts ready for sign up. Commit once a week, once a month, or even just once. Sign up here

I hope you enjoy these last few days of summer and look forward to connecting soon.
