The Shadow Project offers group and individual volunteer opportunities to support our students, teachers, families, and staff. Volunteers support our mission through various activities such as: - Warehouse activities: packing "shadow store" orders for teachers with student incentives through our Goal Setting program; Family Reading Kit assembling, to distribute to students at school events for free - Reading Mentoring: volunteer in schools and work one-on-one with students with learning challenges, motivating them to set and achieve weekly reading goals using assistive reading technology and an extensive audiobook library. We partner with schools in the Centennial School District and Portland Public Schools. - Translation: translating family and student documents into the following languages - Somali, Vietnamese, Chinese, Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian
