Volunteer involvement in any school can make the difference between a good school and a great school. At Yu Ming, there are many ways that family and community members can participate and contribute, regardless of availability, skills or interests. We have opportunities to volunteer in school and outside of school, including hands-on volunteering in classrooms, organizing events, and sharing a personal passion or professional expertise with students and the school.
