Volunteer
Lend a helping hand as a virtual volunteer!
WINGS is happy and honored to welcome a variety of individual volunteers to support our programs: high school students, retirees, local business people, and all other members of the community looking to get involved with a local organization.
In order to meet the safety needs of our students & staff as well as satisfy school requirements during COVID-19 ALL volunteers will be one-on-one virtual tutors and literacy supporters of Atlanta Wings kids. Please Note: Volunteers are NOT required to be in the Atlanta area to be a virtual tutor.
If you are ONLY interested in volunteering in person, please complete the form below and we will add you to our in-person waitlist.

Volunteers support our program Monday through Friday between 3:00-6:00 PM. You can sign-up to volunteer at a frequency that works for you – one time, once a week, or once a month. No experience or special skills required beyond a big, open heart to share with our amazing kids!
