Volunteer & Mentor

Help Us Build The Next Generation.

Both West Sound CoderDojo and WSTA are volunteer organizations with limited resources. If you see a problem you can solve, please volunteer to solve it. The best way to get started: grab a ticket, sign up as a mentor or volunteer, and show up.
Ways to Help
2.5–3 hrs per session

Event Mentor

Float the room and help families with programming questions. No formal teaching required — curiosity and patience go a long way. Sign up for a volunteer ticket and show up.

2.5–3 hrs per session

Event Volunteer

Check-in helpers, IT help for loaner laptops, and general session support. Great for non-technical volunteers who want to make a difference.

Ongoing

Organizer / Ops

Handle logistics: meeting space, sponsors, loaner laptops, social media, outreach, curriculum development, and more. Meet occasionally via Discord or Zoom.

What to Expect

Informal. Energetic. Rewarding.

Do I need to be an expert?
Not at all. You need to be comfortable sitting with a kid who’s stuck and helping them think through a problem. Google is always allowed.
How long are sessions?
A few hours on Saturday mornings. Drop in for part or stay the whole time.
Is there training?
We’ll orient you before your first session. Experienced mentors are always around. The kids will teach you plenty too.
Can I bring my own kid?
Absolutely. Many of our mentors are parents. Building alongside your own kid is one of the best parts.
Get Involved

Ready to Show Up?

The easiest first step is to come to a session and see how it feels. Reach out to let us know you’re coming and we’ll make sure you’re welcomed in.

Guiding Principle

“Kids teach kids much more effectively than a single mentor could ever impart knowledge. Your job is to create the conditions for that to happen.”
