 Volunteers are needed for Spring Cleaning Day on May 5

 Volunteers play a crucial role in helping LIFE Mower County carry out its mission and achieve its goals. 

With their time, energy, and skills, volunteers can contribute to a spring cleaning day by providing assistance with various tasks such as cleaning, organizing, and decluttering. This kind of support not only helps LIFE maintain a clean and welcoming environment but also shows individuals with disabilities that their community cares about them. 

Additionally, volunteering can provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment for the volunteers themselves as they contribute to a meaningful cause and make a positive impact on the lives of others.  

To learn more, contact Jamey at jamey@lifemowercounty.org or 507-473-4832.
