What is the cost?
There is no cost to participate in Serve Day. Paint, supplies and labor are donated or purchased from local merchants to complete projects (please click here to register to participate or make a donation). There are no strings attached to this day. We simply want to serve our area.

When is Serve Day?
May 15th is the actual work day, but there may be some "pre-work" that will need done depending on the amount of preparation that will be required to complete the work.

Who is involved with Serve Day?
Anyone can be involved with Serve Day. Our hope would be that civic organizations, businesses, faith-based organizations, clubs, associations, and others would be involved. As of right now, the city of Ontario is officially on board. We would love to see the entire western Treasure Valley get involved.

What can I expect on Serve Day?
We will gather at 8:30 a.m. at the OHS football field for a Serve Day Kick-Off, then you will head out to your work site. For most projects, you can expect to be finished sometime around lunch, but depending on the project there may be a bit of pre/post-work that will need to be done. More details on locations and times will be provided as Serve Day draws closer. All volunteers will be asked to provide their own lunch. Water will be provided at each work site by the coordinator. Expect to meet new people, get a bit dirty, and accomplish a great amount of good for our community.
