Just like donors, volunteers help us carry out our mission to develop transformational leaders. By donating your time, you help strengthen a school community focused on getting students to and through college.
When noted, you must have an NLCP background check no older than 3 years on file prior to volunteering.
Background checks must be done through Accurate Biometrics. Appointment aren’t necessary and the process is of no cost to you. Email your receipt or present it the day of your volunteer activity to begin. Confidentiality agreements are required as well, and linked below. This process is done to ensure the safety of our students.
