How Volunteering works

An "On Call" list of volunteers made up from our school community will be accessed to provide immediate help for a family in need. This is a dynamic list that is available only to the Kensington Cares committee members.

When signing up (through committee chair Beth Thomsen, ) to be on the On Call list, please provide:
your name
your child(rens) name/grade
your contact information

Do you need Kensington Cares?

A Step by Step Guide

1. Contact your grade representative or a Kensington Cares committee member (grade representatives are posted in the front office of the school and on the school website kensingtonhilltop.org)
2. Respond to the questionnaire as to how Kensington Cares can best help your family (the questions will be provided to you by your grade representative via email or phone call).

We'll Help During Your Ups & Downs

While it is true that Kensington Cares will help when your family is in crisis, we also want to share in your celebrations. Adding new members to your family is a time of transition. Provide us with information on the birth or adoption and we will post this on the Kensington Cares board in the school front hallway.

Contact Kensington Cares committee chair to pass on details Beth Thomsen,

What is Kensington Cares?

Kensington Cares is a great new way for the Kensington Hilltop school community to assist each other when we find ourselves in need.
