This volunteer program provides
an opportunity for experienced parents to reach out to parents of first-year and
transfer students to welcome them and establish a connection to the Wesleyan
community.
- Experience: must be a veteran Wesleyan parent
- Expertise: none; just a
willingness to chat with new parents about whatever topics come up
- Commitment: 1-2 hours, depending
upon the depth of your conversations
- Goal: to contact every new
Wesleyan family
- Timeframe: mid-September through
mid-December
How it works:
-
Sign up
by September 18th to volunteer.
- Assignments are made, based on geographic
proximity when possible.
- You receive a resource cheat sheet and
contact information on 5-7 households, and make the outreach.
- You return your contact sheet, with any
appropriate comments.
- Lots of new parents feel welcome!
