Make a Difference Day

When:
24.10.15 @ 10:30 am – 12:30 pm
2015-10-24T10:30:00-07:00
2015-10-24T12:30:00-07:00
Where:
Main Street Elementary School

October 24 is National Make A Difference Day and we will spend a couple hours that day helping out at a local school, Main Street Elementary. Businesses, churches, non-profits, and individuals all over Santa Cruz County will be serving in our communities. We get to partner with Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County, Charter for Compassion Santa Cruz, and Serve The Bay Santa Cruz County and we’d love to have you join us!

From 10:30am – 12:30pm we will be out there to paint some new lines on the blacktop for the kids to play on. This will take 6-8 volunteers at a time. Those who aren’t painting at points in the project will do some sweeping up, weeding, and general clean up in the playground/woodchip area. Many hands make light work and more fun, too.

This is a great opportunity for kids to join us to give back at a school in the area. We know they don’t always have the strongest stamina in these cases, so we will also be right near the playground where thay can get some energy out while we all work, as well.
We will provide some pizzas for lunch for anyone who wants to stick around after for food and hanging out together after working together.

Please click here to sign up at the Volunteer Center’s website for Make A Difference Day as well in order to help them be aware of how all the projects are looking.

    I would like to help this Saturday for the Make a Difference Clean up.
    I believe the time is 9 -12:30 even though that’s not what’s stated above? the SC web site states the earlier start time. I will have to leave at 11ish and might possibly come back. I tried going to the SC Volunteer web site but didn’t find you there.

    Please let me know if there is space available.

    Thank you
    Jennifer McDonald

      Hi Jennifer!
      There is definitely space available. However, the time for this project is actually 10:30am-12:30pm. Thanks for the heads up that it is wrong on the Volunteer Center page. Is that where you saw it? I was a little confused since you said you didn’t find it there, but I thought that was the site you saw the time at.

      You are welcome to join us for whatever part you are able. Let us know here or you can email me at bobby@missiodeisantacruz.org.
      Thanks a ton!
