What starts as “just community service hours” often turns into something so much bigger.

One student/volunteer recently shared how volunteering at Joshua’s Place changed the way they see serving others. Through helping at Summer Learning Camp, they discovered the impact of showing up for kids...leading crafts, helping with lessons, encouraging learning, and simply being present.

They talked about seeing kids grow in confidence, ask questions about faith, and look up to the volunteers around them. What seemed like a small act of service became a reminder that giving your time can truly change lives — including your own. ❤️

At Joshua’s Place, volunteers aren’t just filling a role. They’re building relationships, creating safe spaces, encouraging kids, and bringing hope to families in our community.

You never know the difference a few hours can make.

Summer Camp is almost here, and we can’t wait! ☀️🎉

This is your chance to help create a summer full of games, laughter, friendships, and unforgettable memories for kids in our community. ❤️

Whether you can help for a few hours or all summer long, you can make a real impact by giving kids a place to have fun, feel supported, and just be kids.

This summer is DOUBLE the fun with camps happening in both the Kings and Little Miami communities! 🙌

Do you want to make an impact in someone's life?

This summer, you can make a difference in a child's life by becoming a Summer Reading Recovery volunteer. Just one hour a week can help foster a lifelong love of learning and reading in a child. Our phonics tutoring program provides one-on-one support to help students sharpen their skills over the summer. It only takes one hour a week to make a difference.

Tutoring starts next week. You can help a student gain confidence this summer. Sign up to volunteer: https://forms.donorsnap.com/form?id=c6ff2dc9-ddfb-4b7c-bde0-a2656242322d

Want to help make summer brighter for students in your community?

Our volunteers at Summer Camp help cultivate an environment dedicated to learning, curiosity, and fun. Just a few hours a week gives kids the chance to experience new things, play fun games, and enjoy good food.

This summer is double the fun. We have TWO Summer Camps in Kings and Little Miami, and we're looking for volunteers at both locations.

If you want to make an impact in your community, sign up to volunteer: https://forms.donorsnap.com/form?id=c6ff2dc9-ddfb-4b7c-bde0-a2656242322d

One hour a week can make a difference in a child's life.

Be the reason a child falls in love with learning this summer. We're looking for volunteers in Mason, Kings, and Little Miami to tutor for Summer Reading Recovery, a program that provides one-on-one support for students who are struggling with phonics. It's more than one hour a week; it's a lifetime of confidence, curiosity, and capability.

"The more I tutor, the more I look forward to my next session. By the time my second grader gets to me, he's already had a long day. But he always has a smile and a story about his family or his day to share with me.

"During our session, we home in on one or two 'fundamental rules of reading' that I hope will help him going forward. By the end of the session, I can see him applying that rule. I tell him this is what it is all about: learn one thing at a time, and someday you will have it down.

"Recently, he had an exceptional day where he seemed to jump in skill level. He will be tackling the next reading level in our next session. It was good to see him advancing. I told him he did great and that I was proud of him.

"I worked with one student on the word 'most.' It doesn't follow the rules. I told him he'd have to memorize it. We reviewed it 15 times that hour. When I told him that someday he would teach his own kids how to read that word, he thought I was crazy. But I hope it's true."

Want to make a real difference this summer?

Some kids just need someone who believes in them and you could be that person.

We’re looking for tutors in Kings, Mason, Little Miami, and Lebanon to help students grow in reading confidence through our Summer Reading Recovery program. You don’t have to be a teacher to make an impact. Sometimes encouragement, patience, and simply showing up can change a child’s confidence for years to come.

Last Monday, May 4, we wrapped up our final Joshua’s Place Family Story Time of the year, and it was such a special evening for our families. 💙

Our mystery reader, Angela Cowles, read We’re All Wonders, and we also shared Knight Owl, reminding our kids that even when people are different, we can always choose kindness.

Families enjoyed stories, activities, book giveaways, and drawings for two summer reading baskets. We’re so thankful for our volunteers, community partners, and families who make nights like these so meaningful. 📚
