We have discovered that everyone has a talent to give.  Whether it's a special skill or area of expertise, the ability to make others feel cared for and safe, or a few hours of your time in our office, everyone has a unique gift that they can share with others. 

 

Whether you can volunteer on a one time basis or are looking for a long term commitment, we appreciate the help from all of our volunteers.  

 

If you are interested in a long term volunteer commitment, please consider becoming a Mentor. Our Mentoring Department pairs an adult, 21 years of age or older, with a child who lost a parent on September 11, 2001.  A Mentor can offer new opportunities, provide guidance, enhance coping skills and most of all have fun!

   

Melissa Giraldo is pursuing a degree in Social Work at Adelphi University.  She hopes to receive her PhD in Social Work and work for the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.  She came to Tuesday’s Children after hearing about the organization through her school’s “Social Work Day.” Melissa has volunteered at many First Responder Alliance programs and has even made time to come into the office to help when she isn’t attending classes or at her internship at the Girl Scouts of the USA.  In her spare time, Melissa likes to read and go to the beach.  Many thanks to Melissa for all her hard work!
