Show Kindness to At-Risk Families and Communities in Need

Save to Favorites

WHAT WE WILL DO:

Project Helping volunteers will be tasked with helping to run various stations as well as a donation table. They will be showing kindness and love to families and community members within two lower-income communities. They will socialize, play sports, play games or engage in any other ways that are appropriate. They will help set up and tear down stations and activities as well as help to gather the family members from the community.

OTHER DETAILS:

The Denver Dream Center’s mission is "to reconnect people who have been isolated by poverty, substance abuse, gangs, imprisonment, homelessness, abuse and neglect to God and to a community of support to meet their physical and spiritual needs. Also, to help them develop a support system that will encourage them to make positive, long-term, God-honoring changes in their lives. The Adopt-a-Block program is an outreach that demonstrates Godʼs unconditional love to the Denver community through practical acts of service. These acts of service range from lawn care and home repair to delivering toys for Christmas and playing games in the neighborhood on an event Saturday. DDC partners with Denver Housing Authority and Denver Parks and Recreation in several locations to serve and love the community.
