We welcome help from the community members to accomplish this huge task in two weeks.

In addition to needing helping hands, we also use funds to help us purchase the cleanings supplies, repair and replacement items, such as broken blinds etc.
Also, all the volunteers and the public are invited to visit The Starting Place during an open house on Friday, October 3rd from noon to 3 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.
