THANK YOU TO OUR PRESENTING SPONSOR CHECK-MATE!
Families of all shapes and sizes – work, school, church, friends – are invited to Family Volunteer Day on Saturday, November 4 from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Volunteer at project sites geared to strengthen bonds, create shared experiences, and lasting memories through community service. If you consider them family, so do we! Volunteering on your own? The more the merrier! We are all a part of one big, happy volunteering family!
Our volunteer opportunities will focus on veteran and active duty Service Members. Sign up to volunteer for one or more projects: Holidays For Heroes, donate to Hero Boxes, Nominate a Hero and more. Make it a full morning of service in honor of local military heroes.
