ESL Teacher Needed

Because of her late shift, Fidel is unable to attend the local ESL class. If you know of someone who is certified to teach English, please email info@centraltolife.com. In addition, our Circle of Welcome has put together a list of items that will help make their new house a home. If you would like to help stock their home, please sign up here.
