Description

Bush Trimming/Removal

Assist with trimming back and removing overgrown bushes located behind the shelter. This project was started during last year's Day of Caring and requires continued attention. The vegetation has grown significantly and is beginning to reach nearby electrical lines, creating a potential safety hazard. Volunteers will help improve safety, visibility, and the overall appearance of the shelter grounds.

Graffiti Removal

Assist with cleaning and removing graffiti from exterior building signs and other affected areas around the shelter. This project will help create a more welcoming, professional, and dignified environment for survivors and families seeking services while improving the overall appearance of the facility and community presence. This is a painting project. Items needed for this project will be provided. 

Volunteers will need to bring the appropriate tools and equipment necessary to complete the projects, including items such as bush trimming and removal tools, work gloves, and other applicable hand tools.

Please where comfortable clothes that you do not mind getting dirty and closed to shoes. Bring a refillable water bottle, sun screen and hat if you require protection from the sun.
