GetSET

GetSET is an after-school program for children in the Trenton area that takes place in the Westminster Presbyterian Church. Through its efforts, the program emphasizes building strong citizenship in an atmosphere of multiculturalism. GetSET offers academic tutoring and a creative arts and drama program for kids of all ages on Wednesdays and Fridays. Princeton volunteers interact closely with the children and dedicated volunteers from other local colleges and universities. Volunteers can choose to go once or twice a week, Wednesdays or Fridays, from 3:00 to 5:00 pm.
