Diversified Community Services

If anyone is going to be in Philadelphia for the summer and is looking for a full/part time job, this one seems really interesting. The type of work goes right along with what we learned about community development during our trip to Cobbs Creek Nature Center.


Hi Folks,

I am reaching out to you in the gardening/environmental world in the hope that you could refer two college students for a summer project. Specifically, DCS will have 25 high-school aged students engaged in a gardening project for 6 weeks. Our plan is to provide some TLC to existing gardens – clean them up, do some planting and nominal design work, given budget constraints.

The college students would serve as monitors/supervisors, earning $10 per hour along with transportation, 30 hours per week, for 8 weeks. Monitors will oversee outdoor gardening work and help students with their workforce portfolios.

If you know of someone, please have them contact me at cweiss@dcsphila.org

Thank you very much.

Cheryl
