PARENTS AND CHILDREN

Variety welcomes children to learn more about our organization and, where appropriate, find opportunities to serve their communities through programs and volunteer activities. However, we encourage this to be done only with their parent’s knowledge and supervision. For this reason we strongly encourage all parents and guardians to monitor the Internet use of their children.
