VOLUNTEER
BE THE HONEY
True partnerships endure when both parties are committed to the same vision and goals. At Omaha Street School, volunteers have been an integral part of our success since the school’s founding. Most donated funds are dedicated to programs to help students succeed in life and the operation of the school. Everything else that is needed to operate the school is given by volunteers and donors. Volunteers help keep our doors open every day. Since 1999, they have donated truckloads of paper products, cleaning supplies, Christmas presents for the students, Christmas gift bags, bottled water, reams of copy paper, furniture, garbage bags, Smart boards, Chromebooks, and the list goes on!
Even though some of our needs have changed over the years, volunteers still selflessly respond.
Not only are we well-supplied, volunteers assist in the classrooms, tackle painting projects, clean the building, organize storage areas, and stock the breakfast room with food. They also provide lunch for students and staff every day we are in school. Individuals, churches, and businesses all participate in the lunch program. We have been so blessed through the years, meeting and working with volunteers who are dedicated to serving our students. If you have a servant’s heart, please contact Susan Schaaf, Volunteer Coordinator at 402-451-5234, ext. 4 or sschaaf@omahastreetschool.com
