Youth Homelessness
Tacoma Youth need Part Time Help this Summer
Do you need a part time job? The YMCA might be right for you! Franklin-Pierce School District in Tacoma has asked if we can help them find Part-Time Day Time Enrichment Coordinator for July and August. Without enough help, the YMCA Summer programs will be cut back, or even cancelled. If you, or anyone you know, has the desire to help children in low income areas consider applying for this position. Please contact us at Washington Masonic Charities, or aignacio@ymcapkc.org.
Please consider an ongoing donation to help youth in your area.
For more information about the Youth and Scholarship Programs, please contact Program Director, Kirsten Putman at (253) 267-8251 or Kirsten@MasonsCare.org
