Rake and Run
In November we offer members of the community a raking service for which they can donate and help send more students to Close Up. Everyone participates in this one day event. Parent volunteers also needed.
MLK Volunteer weekend
MLK Volunteer weekend
During one day of the MLK Holiday, we offer our services to the Decatur MLK Service Project. This is not a fundraiser, but a way to engage with our community. We know that many families use this weekend to serve the community together. Most students reserve one day to work with Close Up.
