TESTIMONIALS

Jessica, Sitter Volunteer
"Through volunteering as an ESL teacher for immigrants, I noticed that the students who stopped coming to class were the ones with kids at home. I really want to help people who are up against a lot but are motivated and determined to improve their lives and just need a little help getting there. SWOB* lets me do exactly that."

Breanne, Sitter Volunteer
"The kids came up with some very clever games and were able to clean up after each one. Making progress to learn how to take turns, like each of them picking out a book for story time at bedtime and saying "excuse me" if they need to interrupt."

"I hope to experience the joy that comes from re-experiencing first joys through the eyes of a child. My professional focus is on children and families, so this would be an opportunity for me to grow. If I can do that while allowing women to pursue higher education, that's a worthwhile use of my time."

*Fun Fact! SWOB is an acronym for Sitters Without Borders (SWOB), the original name that the organization was founded under in 2014, until it became Sitters For Scholars (SFS) in 2021. Learn more by reading Our Story.
