SEASONAL OPPORTUNITIES PROJECTS FOR EVERYONE
BACK-TO-SCHOOL SUPPLY DRIVE (JULY) Host an employee-led supply drive. Each year, the drive continues to grow - helping to outfit hundreds of local students from Asheville/Buncombe schools with fully-stocked backpacks! HOLIDAY BOOK DRIVE FOR MIDDLE SCHOOLERS (NOVEMBER/DECEMBER) Share in the spirit of giving this season by participating in our Holiday Book Drive to support United Way’s Middle School Success Initiative. Donated young-adult books will be gifted to middle school students served by our Asheville Buncombe Middle Grades Network partners. DAYS OF IMPACT (SPRING/FALL) Days of Impact are corporate volunteer service events coordinated by Hands On that occur twice each year. Days of Impact mobilize employee volunteers to strengthen our community by matching teams with service projects focused on education, income and health goals that support the success of our community’s students, their families and neighbors. Example projects include: moving homeless people into housing, reading to students and participating in a financial education simulation with students.
