This Patriot Day/ 9/11 Day of Service Veterans Build will honor every life that was taken too soon on September 11, 2001. We will honor the first responders - firefighters, law enforcement officers, emergency workers, and service members - who answered the call of duty on that day and those who were inspired to defend the nation abroad afterwards. This day of service will bring us all together in support of our own community. Breakfast, lunch and a free t-shirt will be provided.

Join us as we build and paint playhouses for veteran families alongside other veterans. No skills required!

Parking is at VFW Post 9296.

Signing up for this Volunteer Match event will prompt us to send you the link to register on our Volunteer Hub website. Everyone must register there to attend. We are looking for veterans or Americorp to participate.

Minimum volunteer age is 16 years old.
