The Adopt a Park program is where a company, group of individuals, or other organizations agree to clean up a park six or more times a year. Groups who adopt a park will get signage placed at the park that they have adopted and will have access to safety vests, trash bags, and gloves.
Feed the hungry by picking up food donations, preparing meal at Parish Kitchen or dessert at home, organizing a milk or food drive, or serving in the dining room.
Assist at special events in a variety of ways. Spend the day with us at our annual Holly Hill Golf Classic, assist with wrapping gifts for the holidays, or serving Thanksgiving dinner to over 200 members of the community.
Spread the good news and make 2018 your year to volunteer.
