This summer, Covenant will once again support Freedom School Partners, a summer literacy program for students, through a number of volunteer opportunities. We will partner with Highland Renaissance Academy students and other scholars who will attend the Highland Renaissance Academy site (located at 125 W. Craighead Rd., Charlotte, NC).
Please contact Covenant volunteer team leader Casey Unger or Courtney Shudak with any questions.
