FACTS Nursery needs a spring cleaning!
| Last updated on May 6, 2008 |
 The warm weather is coming and the kids are looking forward to playing outside. However, in order to provide a safe environment for play, FACTS Nursery desperately needs some volunteer manpower.
All the outdoor toys need to be brought out of storage and cleaned. And, the yard could use a little some pick-up.
Help us make a safe, fun and clean environment for the children of FACTS to enjoy during the summer months.
It shouldn’t take much longer than an hour or two. This is a one-time opportunity that would be great for someone who is looking to volunteer but cannot commit to a permanent schedule. Also, this is a great opportunity for students in need of fulfilling service learning requirements!
Volunteers interested in this position should be able to perform light physical labor without difficulty.
VOLUNTEERS NEED TO BE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE.
