The Miracle Foundation (Garden City)
The Miracle Foundation has a wonderful volunteer opportunity for teens
through its Miracle Clubs. These clubs are school-based and are run
independently of the foundation. They do require a facilitator and will
have the support of the Director of the foundation. Our most active clubs
host fund-raisers of their own on behalf of The Miracle Foundation.
These include holiday fairs, walk-a-thons, school-based events, custom t-
shirt sales, etc. We would be happy to speak with volunteers about how
they can develop their own Miracle Clubs.
