Luncheon Help!

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: UMAR

UMAR is a non-profit on a mission to promote community inclusion, independence and growth for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through residential, employment and cultural enrichment opportunities.

Each year, we hold a luncheon at Maple Springs United Methodist Church in order to engage donors and support UMAR. This year, we are looking for volunteers on Wednesday morning to set-up for the event, and Thursday afternoon to help break everything down. There will be some heavy lifting involved, as we are setting up several tables, chairs and artwork.

Please contact Chandler at chandlerv@umarinfo.com if you have any questions at all. Thank you, and we look forward to working with you!
