Good afternoon Officers,

Thanks,

The Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education is seeking 56 volunteers in Anchorage & Eagle River to help inspire young Alaskans to pursue higher education by volunteering a few hours with the I Know I Can program – a partnership activity with the University of Alaska College Savings Plan. Please consider volunteering and share this message with your friends and co-workers!
Volunteers visit second grade classrooms, read the I Know I Can storybook with students, and do a fun activity with the class, where students draw pictures of what they want to be when they grow up onto postcards which will be mailed back to them in 2 years. Total time commitment is 1 hour, 15 minutes plus a brown bag training orientation Fri. Oct. 26 at 12pm. (If you can volunteer but are unavailable for the training, please let me know and we can work something out.)
Check out our 5-minute training video: www.acpe.alaska.gov/IKnowICan.
