PMAC volunteer opportunities
PMAC is an after-school program that runs every weekday in concurrence with the Greenville County Schools schedule. Children come straight from school to PMAC, where they engage in physical fitness, games, art, dance, music, and character building activities throughout the afternoon. They are in need of volunteers 15 years or older. Click here to fill out a volunteer interest form.
