Our vision is made possible thanks to the dedication and support of our mentors. Serve with us on a weekly basis or at special events. Mentors have the opportunity to work at both our after-school and in-school programs. Mentors get the chance to learn about peace and conflict resolution, work one on one with youth, and become part of our loving and wonderful LFFP family.

Our volunteer mentors empower children and adults to discover new gifts within themselves and others. Volunteers have the opportunity to experience, learn, practice and teach peace skills.

Mentors are empowered to: 

• Support our participants as they become peacemakers·
• Contribute their talents and interests to develop peace lessons
• Employ nonviolent conflict resolution to serve as role models for others

To become a volunteer, you must:
1) Be at least 15 years old
2) Complete the Volunteer Application
3) Attend a Volunteer Orientation (One-on-One orientations available by request)

​"LFFP has brought so much joy into my life, and it has given me hope for a peaceful future. I am so grateful to be able to connect with the kids and fellow volunteers. Together, we practice lifelong tools of peace that have the power to change the lives of children and ultimately the world. I feel blessed to be a part of the LFFP family."
