United Way for Southeastern Michigan

This past Saturday, 10/17, was the UBS project at Maybury Elementary School in Detroit. The project couldn’t have gone any better! We had 40 volunteers who, overall, gave 200 hours of service in one day that generated $4,050 volunteer dollars back to the school and its community; how amazing is that?! The volunteers painted the entire 2nd floor hallway, three classrooms, and ¾ of the fence outside of the school…along with sorting and organizing hundreds of books. The visual impact of the improvements the volunteers made are going to seen by more than just the children who attend Maybury; the neighborhood is going to notice the change, too. Overall, it was a great experience for everyone involved and I can’t wait to see what projects come up in the future!
