Community members in Taylorville looking to lend a hand to home maintenance projects will have an opportunity to do so on Saturday, June 13.  That’s because the organization Missions for Taylorville is holding its next “workday.”  It’s a day when the group organizes efforts for volunteers to visit homes in need of maintenance to complete needed work.

Ed Legg is the director of Missions for Taylorville.  He says volunteers can sign up anytime before the event.  They are asked, however, to complete an application which explains their skills and capabilities in home maintenance. 

In most cases, the workday takes up the entire day.  Missions for Taylorville arranges logistics and other needs for the volunteer workers in advance so the workday itself progresses smoothly. 

With the workday set for June 13, homeowners interested in having maintenance on their homes must apply by May 22.  This allows time for Missions for Taylorville to assess the projects. 

Missions for Taylorville is entirely volunteer-run and always accepts monetary donations.

More information – along with volunteer and homeowner applications – from Missions for Taylorville is available at www.missionsfortaylorville.org and on their Facebook page.
