Please Note:

A new Health Order requires everyone in Mesa to wear face coverings when they are outside of their homes for essential needs, and requires staff and volunteers who interact with the public to cover their face while doing essential work. We ask that all volunteer wear a face covering. One will be provided if you do not bring one. Volunteers with symptoms such as a cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, muscle aches, headache, chills, or fever should stay home. Volunteers will be asked to wash or sanitize hands frequently. Volunteers will practice social/physical distancing (standing or sitting at least 6 feet apart) from other people, including in the tutoring, music and kitchen areas.
