September: Wrap Up

We were fully blessed today with beautiful weather for the RBC's Yard Sale!

It was amazing to see everyone working together and also showing our children what it means to lend a helping hand!

A big THANK YOU to Christy for not only helping with the sale, but also contributing to the Fight Hunger food donation.

Together we will make a difference.

Welcome!

I couldn't be happier that you are here and are ready to get your hands dirty! I have decided to take on a challenge every month and I would love it if you came along for the ride. Each month I will be providing a volunteer opportunity at a local organization and all you have to do is show up! It's that easy. Our efforts will vary from month to month - it might be picking up trash, feeding the hunger or mentoring those in need. My hope is that our family and friends will team up to make a difference in our community and have fun while doing it. Bookmark our blog/become a follower and come back to check on upcoming events and our progress. Together we will make a difference.
