Community Serving Opportunities

A thriving community through the collective efforts of the community

Here are some ways that you can help serve the local communities

Meal Packing- Grab your family, friends, or life groups to join us on March 7, 8, or 9 at Christian Life Center (3489 Little York Rd Dayton, Ohio 45414) to pack meals for families in need in Eswatini, Africa. Click HERE to register.

Living City Project/Rebuilding Together Day- Save the date for the Living City Project on Saturday April 26th. Last year over 800 volunteers cleaned up 32 different neighborhoods removing over 137 tons of trash and debris from the streets of Dayton during the Living City Project. We are excited to announce that this year we will be partnering with Rebuilding Together Dayton. Rebuilding Together is a national organization that provides critical home repairs and accessibility modifications to low-income senior homeowners at no cost. Every year on the last Saturday in April they host The National Rebuilding Together Day where they invite the local community to join them in their efforts. So whether you are looking to serve the community through a citywide clean up, home repairs, or making a home more accessible for a senior neighbor, this partnership has you and your organization covered! Click HERE to register and invite your friends to serve our city together!
