| Amizade and the AOC are working together to meet the needs of the Petersfield community. Volunteers with an interest in community development, technology, health, education, construction, youth, business initiatives, and more will find plenty of opportunities to lend a hand. By fitting in to the AOC's already effective and existing programs, Amizade volunteers learn about community organizing while contributing their skills to the effort. AOC projects that volunteers have impacted include: Youth Empowerment Summer Camp - teaching computer classes, serving as camp counselors, and tutoring. Building Revitalization - contributing to a community park, painting the local post office, and restoring homes and community buildings. School and Hospice Visits - spending time and sharing culture with school children and people who are ill. Videography Program - teaches technology skills and the power of a visual record
