Volunteer

Overview
The four Rotary Clubs of Fargo-Moorhead are supporting non English speakers through providing public access to Rosetta Stone language learning software. Volunteers are needed at various locations in Fargo-Moorhead to help New Americans learn to use a computer and learn how to use the point and click Rosetta Stone program. The Rosetta Stone program works for any non-English speaker from any language.
