Need volunteer hours but don't have time to do a couple of hours at one time? Then this is perfect for you! The Student Take-Home Volunteer kit is a take home kit that you register for and pick up at the library. It needs to be completed and returned to the library (with the student's name and Library card number on the bag) by the last day of the month. For the month of we will transcribe historical documents for the Library of Congress, By the People project

How it works:
1) Register for the kit by the 16th of the month.
2) Visit the library and pick up the supply kit from the teen desk. Kits available starting the 1st of each month.
3) Complete and Return the activity kit by the end of the month.

Mrs. Amy will email out proof of hours by the 6th of the following month. 

Each completed kit is worth 3 hours of volunteer hours. 

1 kit per registrant per month.
