Since 1990, some of the most valuable direct assistance has come from Project T.I.M.E. (Teach, Inspire, Mentor, Empower) volunteers. The program begun by Reverend Terrell Person matches adults with students for one hour of special time each week. Right now, 30 students are awaiting mentors in our schools, and your help is needed. If you have an hour a week to spare by having lunch and chatting, reading together, shooting some hoops or just listening, we need you!

The first meeting of the month is a work session where matters are discussed, but action is generally not taken. The regular meeting follows a week later, as a rule, and it is at this meeting that the board votes on agenda items. Both the work session and regular meetings offer time for public comment.
