Match your passion with opportunities at our library!

This program is for teens 12 – 18 years old who want to volunteer or earn service hours. Participants will help create visuals for library photo ops, volunteer at programs including summer learning, brainstorm ideas for teen programs, run programs they create, create cards, door hangers, and other activities to share with local senior care facilities and other nonprofits in the community. This is a time to give back for a great cause – AND receive volunteering credit simultaneously.

This program supports the PA Forward state initiative by providing social and civic literacy opportunities for learning and highlighting the transformative nature of public libraries within a community. Libraries contribute to education, employment, entrepreneurship, engagement, and empowerment, but are often overlooked as catalysts for powerful individual and community change.
