Description:
Join us Tuesday, August 12th as we serve the students, staff, and families of Franklin Elementary by restoring their Remembrance Garden—a space created to honor students who have passed. We’ll be refreshing the garden to make it a peaceful, low-maintenance spot the community can continue to cherish.

Volunteers will help remove overgrowth, lay down landscape fabric and weed prevention, mulch the area, and add new plantings. No gardening experience is required—just a willing heart and hands ready to serve.

🌿 Let’s create a place of beauty and remembrance together.

*If you’re unable to attend the kickoff rally, your Serve Week shirt and gift will be available at your serve site
