Volunteer in the Schools or Provide Internships at Your Workplace
Volunteers are needed for many different programs. Opportunities include:
Volunteering in the schools is coordinated through VIBES (Volunteers in the Bellevue's Education System).
Volunteer with the Foundation
Volunteers are a vital part of Bellevue Schools Foundation. Each year hundreds of dedicated people volunteer for BSF, serving as BSF Reps, helping with our Phonathon and Spring for Schools events, participating on committees, and providing office support.
"Being a first-time volunteer for Bellevue School Foundation's annual Phonathon was both fun and rewarding. The parents that I called were all very friendly and receptive to my calls. It's a relatively short time commitment, you get to work alongside other local parent volunteers and it's very fulfilling knowing you are helping ALL kids in Bellevue get the quality education that they deserve. (And, the free pizza and chocolate doesn't hurt, either!)
"If you are considering volunteering with BSF, I would say, 'Go for it!'."
-Gina

More about Bellevue Schools Foundation Reps
Bellevue Schools Foundation Reps (BSF Reps) serve as an important link between the Foundation and each school. Reps communicate Foundation news and events to parents, recruit Phonathon volunteers, host a table for Spring for Schools, and serve as ambassadors for the Foundation in the community.
Thank you to these amazing volunteers serving as 2011-12 Bellevue Schools Foundation Reps. If you have a question about the Foundation, ask your Rep! If you’d like to volunteer to be a Rep, contact your PTSA President or the Foundation office at (425) 456-4199.
