Kalmar Nyckel Foundation education programs offer hands-on learning experiences that are not only fun and exciting, but also informative. We teach more than 5,000 students every year and have a range of volunteer opportunities for anyone looking to get involved with educating children throughout the Delaware Valley.
Teaching experience is not required to become an education volunteer. There are many opportunities, ranging from aiding in-classroom instruction to helping deliver field trips, to joining our sailing crew for education sails.
We provide new volunteers with educational resources and on-the-job training with our education team. If you are interested in signing up to volunteer or are interested in joining our sailing crew, please complete a volunteer application.
Once you have submitted your volunteer application, you will receive an introductory email.
