You Don’t Need to Be Perfect — Just Present

At ABJS, our volunteers don’t just give time.

They offer children and caregivers something far more powerful: presence, play, and possibility.

WHY WE NEED YOU

Our primary causes

You don’t need early childhood credentials.
You don’t need experience.
You don’t need to know the “right” thing to say.

You just need to believe that small, consistent acts of care can shape a lifetime.

At ABJS, volunteers help in dozens of ways — from reading books and setting up play spaces to sitting beside parents who feel like they’re doing it all alone.

Thank you for your time and support!

Whether you give an hour a week or show up for one special event — you matter.
