What kind of volunteer
positions are available?
The David School is a
faith based, nonprofit, educational-community institution. Volunteer positions are as
varied as the people who fill them, ranging from teaching and tutoring to
administrative and maintenance. Just tell us what you are good at and we will find a spot
for you.
What are the requirements?
We welcome anyone who is at least
21 years old and has a
passion to help. Teachers are required
to be degreed, experienced or have specialized training.

What is provided for
volunteers? |
|
• |
HOUSING: We have residence housing for communal
living within walking distance of the school. All household expenses are
paid, including phone, cable TV, and wireless internet. You will have
your own room and will share the large common areas with the rest of
your fellow volunteers. |
|
• |
FOOD: We pay for your groceries and provide
school lunches during the week. Meals in the volunteer residence are
usually eaten together, with everyone pitching in during preparation and
clean up. |
|
• |
MEDICAL COVERAGE: We provide basic medical coverage. |
|
• |
MONTHLY STIPEND: We provide a modest monthly stipend to
help offset expenses. |
|
• |
DEFERRED STUDENT LOANS: You can defer your student
loans while you are volunteering. |
How long of a commitment do I have to make?
The duration of your stay impacts your housing and job
choices. School grounds and maintenance positions are generally one to two
weeks. Volunteers are provided meals and stay in the on-campus cabins, which
are comfortable dorm style apartments.
Teachers are required to commit to at least one full semester,
other support staff are asked to stay at least three months; all stay in the volunteer residence and
receive a modest stipend. Longer commitments can result in salaried
positions.
