Heart to Heart Easter Event- Volunteers Needed!!!

Heart to Heart is looking for about 6 volunteers to help with delivery for their Easter event! This is a great way for your entire family to get involved. Also a great way to talk to your kids about serving children who are currently in foster care.

The need is for volunteers to pick up several bags of eggs from Heart to Heart (located at Frazer United Methodist Church), probably 3-4 deliveries per family, and then go put the eggs out in foster families’ yards (we will tell you where to go) so their kids can have an egg hunt! Super easy! Serving families in 3 different counties just requires a little extra help with this project.

The pick-up and delivery date will be Saturday, April 3rd, from about 5-8pm. You can come grab and put out your eggs anytime that day at your convenience.

For more information or to volunteer contact CJ Brown.
