Tikkun Olam volunteers work with many different populations of all ages, though most focus on children. Although the specific volunteering places vary from term to term, a broad assortment of opportunities will be made available in the following general areas:
* Tutoring in public schools in poor neighborhoods (all ages)
* Working with children with different kinds of disabilities
* Community centers in poor neighborhoods
* Activities involving both Arab and Jewish youth
* Work with South Tel Aviv's illegal immigrant population
* Work with South Tel Aviv's refugee population (including many refugees from Darfur)
* Adapted sports programs for children with disabilities
* Programs at a halfway house for recently released juvenile offenders
* And many more!
Information on specific volunteering opportunities will be released starting in the weeks leading up to the beginning of the program. Participants will have the opportunity to tour the various volunteering options and, with the guidance of Tikkun Olam staff, will choose which projects to take on for the remainder of the program.
For those participants with interests outside the pre-arranged offerings, when possible, our staff will attempt to assist the participants in arranging volunteer opportunities more suited to their interests.
