As a volunteer at Break Time, you will have an opportunity to make a loving impression on the kids who attend while having a lot of fun! By contributing to the success of Break Time, you allow single parents time for a much-needed break to recharge, and you show them that there are people who recognize their needs and want to contribute in helping to meet them. You have the opportunity to show love to a great group of kids by engaging them in a variety of activities like games, crafts, and snacks.

Break Times occur once a month and we will continue to add dates to our website as the year goes on.

Volunteers 18 and older are required to complete a background check prior to serving.

Each Safety City volunteers are paired with one or two children going into Kindergarten. Our sessions run for five days and meet 2.5 hours each day with morning and afternoon sessions available. The volunteers mentor their assigned kindergartners through several safety lessons and assist them with different activities throughout the week. Waukee Police Officers facilitate the class and lead everyone in a fun, healthy, safe environment.
