Opportunity Details
Spring Landscaping at the Family Relief Nursery (age 12+) *CCD 2012*
The Family Relief Nursery is a prevention/intervention program that helps to stop the cycle of child abuse & neglect while also providing development assessments and a therapeutic nursery/preschool environment for children ages six weeks through five years. The program provides skills training, respite care, and home visits to assist families in re-establishing a safe, caring home environment.
Enjoy a day out with Volunteers of America staff and volunteers, helping get our grounds ready for children and families to enjoy! From completing a toddler play structure installation to landscaping and outdoor clean-up, we will work together to make the space toddler-friendly for toddler-fun!
Wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty that lend themselves to physical work, and bring those layers for Portland spring weather! Tools will be provided as needed, and all volunteers will be treated to snacks and beverages to keep you well-nourished.
