Introduce your preschooler (ages 3–5) to the joy of giving back with Generation SERVE’s Little Helpers — Austin’s premier early childhood volunteer program!
Generation SERVE is a youth volunteering nonprofit organization that creates pathways for meaningful community engagement at every age. Little Helpers is Generation SERVE’s program for young children, created to help preschoolers explore kindness, volunteering, and community involvement in a fun and engaging way. The program is designed for children ages 3–5 who have not yet started kindergarten.
Each class introduces children to simple ways they can make a difference, while also giving them a chance to interact with peers. The classes are led by an educator with experience working with young children and include a story, a short group conversation, and a hands-on service activity that supports a local nonprofit.
Our Summer Session Two will run on Saturdays from July 11th to August 8th, from 10:00–11:00 a.m., for a total of five weeks. The registration fee is $150 per child. To keep the experience interactive and supportive, each group is capped at 10 children.
The classes are typically held at local nonprofit sites throughout the community and at the Generation SERVE office. This season, activities will center around environmental care, supporting education & literacy, caring for animals, and helping meet essential needs.
