Become a Volunteer
Are you passionate about helping students achieve their educational goals? L.A. Cash for College is seeking volunteers with working knowledge of the new FAFSA and CADAA!
Host Your Own Financial Aid Completion Workshop
L.A. Cash for College partners with schools and organizations to host Financial Aid Completion Workshops throughout the financial aid application season. To host a workshop, sites must provide internet connected devices (i.e., computer lab, classroom, community center, etc.) where students can start and/or complete their financial aid applications. Sites must be able to provide 1:1 assistance (volunteers) with the application process during these workshops. L.A. CFC can support connecting potential workshop hosts with volunteers from the region.
Become a Sponsor
Sites hosting workshops benefit greatly from incentivizing student participation. Incentives vary from providing snacks and refreshments to tools that will support students through their college journey (i.e., laptops, headphones, tablets, backpacks, etc.). Sponsorships can be updated annually, and sponsored funds can be directed based on a mutual understanding of priorities.
