Opportunity Description:

Project K.I.D.S (mission: Dedicate time once a week to fun activities with the kids of Mulgrave Park Community, teaching them: Kindness, Independence, Discipline & Self-Awareness) is on the go! We are building a Haunted House on November 7 (Friday) with the kids from Mulgrave Park! The idea is to educate them on different aspects (see the mission) through activities (4Days) and at the end, we build the haunted house with them! The reason why we are doing this in November is because we wanted to go collect donations after Halloween to reduce our costs. See the timeline for schedule. Timeline: Volunteers will be needed for all selected days. Sign up here to volunteer. Day 1: Friday October 17th: We will meet with the kids and brainstorm with them on how they envision their Haunted House. Day 2: Sunday October 19th Flyer distribution ~ solicit for donations (Door to Door) 2pm-4pm – Volunteers Needed. We will also include the kids this day. Day 3: Sunday November 2cd Collect donations. 2pm-4pm – Again volunteers needed. Kids will again be included. Day 4: November 3rd Craft day with the kids ~ Create signs and other material for the Haunted House. November 6th Adults meet and begin prep for next day. Day 5: November 7th Event Day
