Opportunities to Serve
CJ is a Volunteer driven ministry! The contribution of your time is vital to our ability to successfully build God’s Kingdom in under-resourced communities.
Learning Buddies
Recruiting Volunteers
Have you ever wondered where you’d be right now if you couldn’t read? Would you have a good job? Or would you feel hopelessly stuck with no way to fulfill your dreams?
Compassionate Justice will partner with South Avondale Elementary School to offer the Learning Buddies program. Learning Buddies will assist children with reading and spelling; showing them how much fun learning can be! We’ll also demonstrate how much Jesus loves them!
What better future could these children have than this; experiencing God's love for them while learning to read? But we can’t do this alone. We need 24 or more volunteers to bless the students of Avondale.
Here’s what you need to know:
When: Tuesdays & Thursdays 2:15 – 4:15
Start Date: Training on September 24th
Followed by tutoring from October thru May
Where: South Avondale Elementary School
636 Prospect Place, Cincinnati 45229

Compassion Outreach Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteer opportunities are available for both skilled and unskilled individuals. Most of the outreaches are “family friendly”. And we invite parents to involve their children and students as they exemplify how to “love their neighbor”! Everyone works at their own pace with the goals to:
• Glorify God
• Demonstrate our love for the community
• Develop high quality relationships with co-workers and community residents
• Enjoy serving together
• Work to accomplish the project priorities
When: Second Saturday each month from 8:45 am to 1:00 pm (lunch included)
Every month on the second Saturday, CJ organizes outreaches in Avondale to serve individuals and families as well as some institutions (i.e. schools, churches, public spaces). The outreaches include projects such as house maintenance (i.e. painting, etc.) and yard maintenance (i.e. pruning, weeding, mulching, etc.). We collaborate with a number of churches from the community as well as civic organizations. Our goal is to help carry the burdens of individuals and families which are too heavy for them to carry on their own (Galatians 6:2)!
Interested in helping to relieve other’s burdens?
We Promote a Christ Centered World View!
Compassionate Justice and our partners are guided by Biblical truth. We incorporate Bible stories, prayer, and spiritual discussions within all of our programs. We hope each participant will experience God's amazing love and grow closer to Jesus during their experience!
