Big Oak Child Care Center has been providing quality, play-based child care to the Atwood neighborhood and near east side of Madison for over 30 years. 2020 was a challenging year for childcare centers locally and nationally.

We are seeking donations that will directly enrich the center, children's experience, and benefit our beloved staff.

You can also order items from our wish list through Amazon Smile and an additional 5% donation will be made to Big Oak!

Our Youth Community Enrichment Program (YCEP) provides year-round age-appropriate opportunities and special events for developmentally disabled children as young as age 5. Through YCEP, children can socialize and interact with peers, experience spending time away from home, and have more exposure to the community and area events.

The program also provides a chance for the parents and other caregivers to have a break from the day-to-day responsibilities of caring for a child who has exceptional needs.

Volunteer application and background check must be completed, before starting any volunteer experience with The Arc Fond du Lac.

The Community Enrichment Program (CEP), is a nights and weekends program designed to integrate those with intellectual and developmental disabilities into the community in a safe, fun, and supportive environment.

Journey Together is a prison dog program that trains service dogs to help people with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).  Our dogs spend the majority of their time being trained by inmates at the Oshkosh Correctional Institution.  However, to have the skills needed to be a successful service dog, our puppies need exposure to public places and events.

Volunteers schedule times that work in their schedule to take the dogs to locations for public access and exposure.  Grocery stores, department stores, youth events, parks and restaurants are all examples of places the dogs need to experience.  Our volunteers select the dates and times that fit their lifestyle.

JTSD provides orientation and training to new volunteers and ongoing training opportunities as well as group outings.

Looking for Victim Crisis Response Volunteers to Address Trauma

The Fox Cities Victim Crisis Response (VCR) Team is looking to expand its services within Winnebago County, specifically to the Oshkosh area. The VCR team is a professional volunteer organization designed to assist local police departments in providing support, assistance and resources to members of the community and their families who are victims/survivors of crime or who are in crisis. Trained VCR volunteers respond directly to the scene when requested by members of the partnering police agencies. Last year, the VCR program responded to an average of 300 emergency calls, serving 1,300 community members. Based on the recommendations and work of the Winnebago County Overdose Fatality Reviews and the lead from the Oshkosh Police Department, the VCR program is looking for 10 volunteers to be trained and to begin volunteering this fall, so this successful program can meet the needs of Oshkosh community members. 

VCR volunteers will be working within Winnebago and Outagamie counties for a minimum of 12 hours of on-call time per month. Ideal volunteers are over 18, successfully pass a background check, and people who are understanding, empathetic, and compassionate for those experiencing a traumatic event. Additionally volunteers would need to be reliable, to be respectful of law enforcement and first responders, have a personal cell phone with a data plan, have a valid driver’s license, have valid auto insurance and have a reliable vehicle. VCR volunteers respond with immediate assistance to support the needs of victims/survivors of crime and those in crisis, primarily with emotional support, safety, information, and community referrals; they enhance the quality of justice by fostering an increased willingness of victims/survivors and witnesses to cooperate with law enforcement after they have reported a crime; they assist law enforcement officers by attending to the immediate on-scene emotional needs of victims/survivors of crime and crisis; and they attend monthly training meetings to develop personal skills and team building.

All volunteers go through 24 hours of training and will be matched with VCR mentors. If you're interested please contact Volunteer Coordination and Community Outreach Manager, at info@victimcrisisresponse.org #920-422-8205 or apply here: https://victimcrisisresponse.org/volunteer-application/. Training will start this fall and applications are due by September 1st.

Thank you for your interest in the Senior Medicare Patrol volunteer program. As a volunteer, you will play a vital role in the overall success of the Wisconsin SMP. The information that you will impart as a volunteer will help seniors in your community to become better health care consumers. Together we can inform and empower Medicare beneficiaries, their families and caregivers on how to protect, detect, and report Medicare fraud, abuses and errors. By volunteering, you will have an opportunity to use your talents, skills, and networking to provide outreach and education on Medicare fraud in your community. Volunteer involvement ranges from distributing materials, staffing a booth at conferences and outreach events, to giving group presentations. A description of these three activities is below.

We want to provide you with the information and background you’ll need to be knowledgeable and capable of responding to questions from members of the community. The last two roles also require a background check.
