I volunteered with the Center of Help for 4.5 years doing data entry and administrative assistant duties. They are a wonderful non-profit that serves the Latino/Hispanic population in Maryland. The Center offers ESOL and Computer classes, assistance, and educational programs for children, all within a family-like setting. This was a wonderful environment.
Great Non Profit! Supports the Hispanic community by providing education, leadership classes, citizenship classes, entertainment and more.... The Hispanic community is becoming more active and involved with the city and the county. Hispanics are getting educated about creating and accelerating businesses. The Hispanic businesses are providing jobs and giving back to the community as well. The leadership board and friend of the board are highly visible and awesome.!
