So I put together some of the volunteer tasks or duties that we would need assistance with. Please let me know what or which task would you like to help with so I would have an idea ahead of time and I can share it with the person I requested to help me and be Volunteer Coordinator for the day. You will be volunteering / working along with 20 students from the Santa Monica College and some staff and volunteers from Braille Institute.

Braille set up an orientation for all volunteers to orient everyone where workshops are going to be held, how to sight-guide a blind / visually impaired person (for those who do not have experience sight-guiding), and in general assignment of who will be doing certain tasks and duties. If 7AM is too early for you, no worries, just let me know. There will be plenty of stuff you can help with throughout the day.
