Volunteers are needed to help do some home improvement projects at one of the Families Forward Home Connection properties. Projects will primarily include inside painting and cleaning, but could also include yard work and prepping a house for a new family. We will provide the address of the home that we will work on about 10 days before the event. (We choose the home that needs the most help at the time.) All supplies will be provided, but please bring your favorite yard work gloves and paint brush.
Questions? Contact Missy Reams at missy@familiesforward.org or call 515-989-8404.
Orientation: A volunteer orientation about Families Forward is provided when you first arrive to volunteer.
