Mission Possible is back!

The Leamersville Grace Brethren Church sent their MISSION POSSIBLE team back to the American Rescue Workers for a WORK DAY! In one Saturday, 15 volunteers from their church came to make a difference in the community!
Objective: makeover! They pulled overgrown and unruly landscaping from the side of the building and relocated it at the front of the building to make it more appealing. This was not a small feat.. it took most of the day to accomplish just that but that is not all!!!

Local Teens Making a Difference!

This past May the Hollidaysburg Area High School had a group of teens and adults do a special project at the American Rescue Workers. A phone call from Meredith Henderson revealed a school project that would include learning to write and execute grants, collect necessary materials and then complete a service project for the community. The American Rescue Workers was selected as their project and they came and re-vamped a bathroom on the second floor of the 502 Mulberry St. building that was being used for youth gatherings.
