Volunteer: Day of Compassion- Clean Up Before Summer Camp Starts!

We are partnering with the historical Mt Lebanon Missionary Baptist Church to host summer camp programming this summer for 50 Louisville kids, and we'd like to make sure the outdoor space is prepped and ready for them!

Planned activities include:

Picking up trash and clearing debris around the church, the parking lot, the alley, the lot across the street, and the surrounding blockLaying dirt and mulch where neededPlanting flower seeds for the children to care for all summer

This project will create a cleaner, more inviting space for not only the kids in camp, but also the church and the surrounding community.
