Planting Independence- One Yard at a Time, Saturdays Fall 2018

Saturday October 20, 2018 • 8:00 am • Varies • Varies

8:00 am

The Whole Person partners with individual volunteers and groups to perform low to moderate risk activities such as mowing, raking, weeding, and planting at the homes of the people who receive our services.  (Excluded activities are lifting over 50 lbs or handling or removing any hazardous material.)

Yard maintenance can be a tough situation for people with disabilities.  This activity with our volunteers helps TWP Consumers get a handle on their yards and avoid unnecessary fines from the city where they live.

This is an excellent volunteer opportunity for individuals, families, clubs, schools, scouts, organizations, and businesses who are looking for an activity to give back, be outdoors, and serve individuals in our community that live with disabilities.

Individuals and volunteer groups are needed to get this work done!  Please contact Kelly Grooms at 816-627-2232 (or email to kgrooms@thewholeperson.org) if you or your group would like to provide support with our “Planting Independence” initiative.
