Create a video of yourself reading a children's book. Involve your family or other members of your household. Feel free to get creative and use puppets, stuffed animals, or costumes. These videos will be shared with school districts and agencies as an educational/entertainment tool for children under the age of 10. 

 

Resume Editing for Job Seekers

Edit the resumes of job seekers from our agency partners. Job seekers will send resumes to you. Offer feedback and edits and send them back to the submitter. Be willing to answer follow-up questions via email.

Individuals and families can identify an area in the community that needs to be cleaned up. Litter can be collected, bagged, and disposed of, all while practicing social distancing. For help identifying areas in need, please contact United Way staff.
