(ICU)
A FREE BE ALL YOU CAN BE SCHOOL
The IN-CROWD University (ICU) is in operation. We are matching up people possessing knowledge of ways to help underserved people to obtain INformation, INspiration, and INvolvement that will help them to improve their situation and more.
Courses will include: English as a Second Language, Remedial Math, Master Gardening, Job Preparation, etc. Almost all classes are held on the Zoom platform with some opportunities for in-person learning.
We are currently seeking volunteer Student Teachers and Mentors! If you are interested in becoming a student or a teacher, please contact us!
The Palm Beach County Public Schools have distributed our contact information on Building Bridges to Guidance Counselors in Junior and Senior High Schools throughout the county.
Students will now have a helpful new tool to find the best ways to contribute their community service time by using our Building Bridges Volunteer INvolvement Menu.
The Volunteer INvolvement Menu will help guide students to a variety of front line organizations that work in various ways in Palm Beach County’s underserved communities to improve the quality of life. The Volunteer INvolvement Menu is not just for students! Anyone who wishes to become a volunteer Teacher, or wishes to become a student, can participate.

TEACHER’S COMMENTS
| “Thanks for the opportunity which the In-Crowd presented for me to offer English to speakers of other languages. While those who attend the class learn the language that is essential to living a full life in America, I gain lots of joy, new friends and fulfillment in being able to share my love for languages with those who come from another culture. We are having a great time and I feel very good about being able to help others in this way. It is amazing how many people and agencies you have brought together in order to match the unique gifts we all possess with needs of those who are not looking for a hand-out but a hand up. Keep up the good work.“ Rabbi Barry Silver, Esq. |
