On Saturday, Oct. 27, hundreds of volunteers in Fountain Hills will come together with a common mission – to improve the lives of others around town.

The 10th Annual Make a Difference Day event will take place on that date. Town volunteers are needed to unite and serve Fountain Hills residents who could use assistance with a variety of projects in their homes and yards.

“We are looking for volunteers and also for residents who, due to many different reasons – health, financial, lack of transportation and family and more – may need a hand with landscaping, painting, repairing, cleaning, building a wheel chair ramp and installing grab bars, hauling debris, and other minor home projects,” said Town of Fountain Hills Volunteer Coordinator Heather Ware.

Anyone who knows of a resident or are interested in receiving assistance, call Heather at 480-816-5108, or email hware@fh.az.gov. Registration for volunteering is online at fh.az.gov/madd.

“This event is about neighbors helping neighbors,” Ware said. “It will make a difference in the lives of vulnerable residents as well as the volunteers who participate.”
