Volunteers
People who give their time to 4 Kids make an invaluable contribution, and we're glad to have qualified volunteer help reading to the children, accompanying field trips, and more. For more information about volunteer opportunities, either on a regularly-scheduled basis or occasionally, call us at 412-271-3300.

Interns
Undergraduate and graduate students in fields such as child development, elementary education, and social work find that 4 Kids presents a rewarding real-world enhancement to their studies. Call 412-271-3300 for details.

For the safety of the children, all volunteers and interns who work with children in Pennsylvania must obtain a criminal record check, a child abuse history, and an FBI clearance. The clearance process takes approximately 4-6 weeks.
