BETTENDORF, IOWA (December 2, 2019) We need your help! Volunteers are needed for upcoming Quad Cities Region FIRST Events. These are the largest student STEM Events in the Quad Cities Region this year, involving over 1,000 youth! This is a great opportunity to share your skills, talents, and passion while having fun and positively impacting the lives of students ages 6-18 in our community.

No experience is necessary: A technical background is NOT required for most of the volunteer positions. Most positions require one day or just a few hours time commitment. Adults, college, and high-school students are eligible to volunteer (including family and friends).

Visit our website  http://qcesc.org/qc-first-volunteers/ for more information.
