The Virginia Cooperative Extension is recruiting professionals to volunteer as Master Financial Educators in Arlington and the City of Alexandria. Would ASV be willing to share our volunteer recruitment drive with your Northern Virginia members?
We will have mandatory volunteer training sessions on Saturday Sept. 6 and Saturday Sept. 13 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at the Fairlington Community Center Room 100, 3308 S Stafford Street in Arlington.
Master Financial Education Volunteers provide valuable services such as:
-- One-on-one financial counseling with clients who range from young professionals to senior citizens
-- Financial management classes on topics including spending and saving
-- Financial education for children, including financial simulations for elementary and middle school-aged children
-- Tax clinics for low-income individuals
-- Create your own financial education program
The Extension has a strong need of Spanish-speaking volunteers.
To learn more about volunteering with Extension, or to sign up for the September training, please contact Megan Kuhn at megan81@vt.edu or call 703-228-6421.
