Volunteers are an important part of our
program. Each year we bring in volunteers from The Junior League of
Austin, the University of Texas at Austin, St. Edward's University,
and the Austin community. We are always looking for people who want
to make an impact on the lives of young Hispanic women in Austin.
For additional information regarding the opportunities below or to

the Community
Volunteer Application, please contact Sonia Castellanos

The mentor experience is a fun way for our students to meet and interact
with a positive role model. Mentors meet every other month during the school
year with their student(s) through activities organized by Con Mi MADRE
and maintain regular correspondence either by email or phone.
Are you an expert on financial aid? Is there a particular subject affecting middle and high school girls that you know a lot about? Do you have a touching personal success story to share with us? Are you an outreach professional for a local social service organization? Then we need you! We have regular opportunities to share your knowledge and experience with our mothers and daughters through formal speaking engagements. These include opportunities to speak at mother/daughter conferences, organize special workshops, and speak at campus meetings. Let us know what you have to share!
Keeping up with so many families is quite a task, so we are always looking for a few extra helping hands at our many events. This is a great way to get to know many of our families and volunteers!
The advisory board consists of a group of business professionals, school
administrators, and other community representatives who provide feedback
and guidance to Con Mi MADRE staff in order to grow and strengthen the program.
Positions are open on an annual basis, including those made available to
moms in the program. |
