Resource Development Coordinator, Jennifer Belleth gives an example of what one of the 12 projects in store for 2018 may include.
"We bring volunteer's along to maybe repair and paint a fence that is looking worn and tattered and it helps the clients or individuals that are a part of that agency to feel worthy of that up keep and also just feel really proud going in those doors."
Belleth gives an inside scoop on who should submit and what criteria a good applicant should follow.
