Teens – It’s Back for Summer! Craft for a Cause!

Ready to craft, create, and give back? This summer, teens can earn volunteer hours by making handmade items for local charities, all from the comfort of home! Each month features a new project with a different organization.

How it Works:

  • Pick up a kit with all the supplies and tools from the library within one week of its release.
  • Create your project at home.
  • Return the completed project and tools in time for next month’s kit!

Summer Projects:

  • July: Handbound Notebooks (for House of Blessing)
  • August: Project TBA (Stay tuned!)

Kit Pick-Up Dates:

  • Tuesday, July 8 (Handbound Notebooks)
  • Tuesday, August 5 (TBA)

Fill out the volunteer application by June 20th and be sure to check the Teen Programs checkbox. You must be in grades 9-12 to participate (grade 9 students eligible for volunteer hours). Kits are available for pick-up within 7 days of release!
