SerVegas

So...over the last several weeks you heard and saw us talking a lot about "SerVegas". This was a day that Tommy has been working on and planning since we moved to Vegas. The idea was to reach out and serve our community but rather than start a new project in only one area we decided to serve non profit organizations who are already serving here. We had a team of volunteers were in on the planning and organizing of the event. We lined up projects with non-religious, non-profit organizations for us to serve all on the same day. The organizations included Shade Tree (a shelter for abused women and children), Street Teens, NV Partnership for Homeless Youth, Family Promise, St. Vincent Thrift Store. We also had volunteers serve at "Neon Reverb" which was a music festival that same weekend and we had our youth do a "Free Car Wash" for the community. We had atleast 60 volunteers show up and it was an amazing day. The organizations were blown away and very grateful and the volunteers were grateful to be apart of something where they could "give back" and serve. We also had an after party that evening with catered h'orderves, a live band, and a comedian/magician, for the volunteers and the organizations we served. A great time was had by all and this is definitely something we all look forward to doing again in the future!
