What is my role as a volunteer?

You will be assigned to work in a business with a small group of students. Your duties include:

• Assist students in determining their Net Monthly Income and saving plan.
• Help the students make choices for each expense (I.E. house, car, savings, etc.)

 

Do I need to attend a volunteer training session?

Yes.  The mandatory training session will be held the morning of your child’s visit.  You will need to arrive at Finance Park prior to the students’ arrival.  Check with your school to find out your exact training time.  Your child should report to school as usual that morning.  They will be transported to Finance Park at the appropriate time.

If you have volunteered at Finance Park within the last year, you do not need to attend this training and should arrive at Finance Park 15 minutes after your school’s start time.  Please note that Enterprise Village and Finance Park are entirely different programs.  Previous volunteer experience in one program does not prepare you for the other.

 

What should I wear?

Your attire should be business casual, but make certain to wear comfortable shoes as you may be on your feet a great deal.  Also, it can be a little chilly, so you may want to bring a sweater or jacket.

 

What are my lunch options?

We ask that you bring your lunch to Finance Park. Refrigeration is available.

 

Am I able to bring a younger sibling?

No. Due to insurance restrictions, volunteers may not bring non-participating children.
