Created in 2018, this project consists of helping nonprofits with facility improvements to better serve their communities and to provide a community breakfast for those in need.
On Friday, September 7, 2018, students from Valley Christian High school came together with local community groups to perform labors of love at Chandler Public Housing sites, Senior Center, EV Jewish Community Center & AZCEND.
