At-Home Volunteering
We would be delighted to have help with preparing items for events at home for those who would like to help out with their time at home. This kind of help can vary, however, we ARE hoping to build a YG thousand-crane photo backdrop and would be happy to accept help in folding paper cranes for this ambitious project. We have a specific design, so please contact ygschoolpto@gmail.com if you are interested in helping with this task and we'll give you instructions and supplies!
