Important Directions: Getting to the site is a little tricky. When you reach what looks like the end of Marjess Rd, you’ll see a two-track driveway straight ahead. That is the client’s driveway. The client literally lives at the end of the road.
Please come ready to work, serve, and have a great time with your fellow HCRPCA volunteers. We’d love to have a strong turnout for this build! Water and lunch will be provided!
Please contact Community Service Coordinator Kayla Williams-DiNardo with any questions at kayla.williams.hcr@gmail.
