The 15th annual Make a Difference Day event for Fountain Hills will take place on Saturday, Oct. 21, when volunteers in Fountain Hills will come together with a common mission – to improve the lives of others in the community.

Town volunteers are needed to unite and serve Fountain Hills residents who can use assistance with a variety of home projects. Organizers are seeking residents who, due to many reasons – health, financial, lack of transportation, family and more – may need a hand with minor interior and exterior home repairs, building an exterior wheelchair ramp, minor landscaping projects or hauling exterior debris, just to name a few examples.

Anyone who knows of a resident or who is interested in receiving assistance from a Make a Difference Day volunteer group, contact Kim Wickland, volunteer coordinator, at 480-816-5108 or kwickland@fountainhillsaz.gov.

Residential work project requests are due by Thursday, Aug. 31. Residential work project registration forms are available at the Community Center and Town Hall. Volunteer Registration is available at fountainhillsaz.gov/madd.
