James River High School readies for Day of Service Sept. 21

“We are excited to announce that we have surpassed our original goal of having 300 students sign up for our Day of Service and currently have 330 students ready to participate this Friday!” said Zach Wakeman. That is 60% of James River High School! It looks like the weather is going to be great and our sites are ready to host us. We hope that you will be able to join us to help us spread the news that our students and staff are making a difference in our community! All too often we hear about bad things happening in the world…we hope that this event will give people hope that good does still exist and it begins with our youth stepping up to make a difference.
