An Outdoor Adventure at "Adventures in Early Learning"

Expired

Description

TDC Learning Centers, Inc. provides early care and education for children at four locations across Greater Topeka. Our teachers and providers facilitate development to its fullest potential. We are recognized as an innovative organization that provides high quality and unique services to a diverse population.

This full day project involves cleaning, improving and repairing two outdoor environments for the children we care for.

Landscaping material needs raking and redistribution. Sand boxes need to be sifted with more sand added. Outdoor play structures and toys need a good scrubbing and some rearranging.

Our staff appreciates when volunteers come to their aid, and they realize that donating time is a generous gift that makes our community better and stronger.

 

If project doesn't fill to capacity it will be cancelled and signed up volunteers will be reassigned.
