Kids Connection
Kids Connection sends Brandeis volunteers to local non-profit organizations that work with youth. Currently, Brandeis students volunteer with the Boys and Girls Club and the Chill Zone. The Boys and Girls Club serves youth ages 6-18 and aims to inspire and enable all young people to realize their full potential. The Chill Zone is open to middle school students in grades 6,7 and 8 and provides a safe and supervised environment for recreation, socialization and education. Volunteers run and assist with programs such as arts & crafts, science experiments, sports and more!
