Anna's Arts for Kids
The vision of Anna’s Arts for Kids is to inspire effective change in local youth ages 5 to 13 through academic development, performing arts training, community service, and environmental awareness.
WHAT YOU DO
Service learning tasks include after-school tutoring and homework assistance for youth (preK-8th grade) and Saturday arts activities.
*Students serving at AAK are expected to complete 1 volunteer shift per week over the course of 10 weeks (for a total of 10 shifts). Therefore, students must be willing to serve more hours than most service learning courses require.

WHAT YOU LEARN
Service learners can expect to receive hands-on training in child education. They will also learn about issues of poverty and its effect on children and the resourcefulness of children in overcoming the challenges that life presents. Service learners will learn what it means to be a role model for youth who aspire to go to college.
