More than 55,000 people have given over 500,000 hours to RAFT. They sort donated materials, assemble kits, and pack the boxes that reach a classroom as a lesson a student can open.
Come to us in San Jose, have us come to you, or read what a shift is actually like before you decide.
Arrival and orientation, the work itself, and the stack of finished kits you can see when you leave. No STEAM background needed.
Prep and package STEAM kits, sort incoming donations, and help educators in the Educator Workroom. Morning and afternoon shifts.
RAFT comes to your office, school or community event with all the materials and leads the build. Individuals and groups both welcome.
Co-facilitate hands-on activities with students in grades K to 8 at Maker Mobile events. The most direct way to work with students.
Help camp run: materials management, running maker challenges, and logistical support alongside the staff.
Help educators find and make what they need while they are in the building.
We bring all the materials and lead a kit-building event for your team. Write to volunteer@raft.net to plan one.
Shifts run Tuesday through Sunday, morning and afternoon. Individuals and groups are both welcome, and RAFT follows county health guidelines for every volunteer opportunity.
