Ways to Get Involved

The Shadow Project could not serve students with learning challenges without the generous support of volunteers! You can change the trajectory of a child’s education with your weekly, monthly, or occasional volunteer service.

Become a Reading Mentor

Do you want to work hands-on with students who have learning challenges and are struggling to read? Our Reading Mentors meet with elementary and middle school students one-on-one, helping them learn to use an online audio-visual book library designed specifically for children with learning challenges. Mentors guide children in exploring their interests, find books they love, and read more! Learn more.

Other Opportunities!

We have a variety of ongoing and date-specific volunteer opportunities, which include assembling “rewards” kits for students, packing and delivering materials to special education teachers, sorting books for students, and assisting with our annual donor campaign. Do you need volunteer credit for a course? We can help with that! We welcome corporate, college, high school, church, and other groups. Learn more.
