Anne Frank once said, “How wonderful it is that no one need wait a single moment before starting to change the world.”
Over a million Americans in thousands of communities across the country will be taking those words to heart this fall. The Merrill project will be held on Saturday, November 2. This is one week later than usual and is a week after the national event.
Merrill’s 24th annual Make A Difference Day, sponsored by Merrill Forward Together Healthy Community Initiative (MFTHCI) and the Optimist Club, will begin with check-in at the Prairie River Middle School cafeteria from 8:30 a.m.- 8:45 a.m. Volunteers will roll up their sleeves for raking projects from 9:00 am until noon, with lunch provided afterward.
If you are unable to rake your yard yourself, please call to register by Wednesday, October 23, If you signed up for help last year, a letter was sent with a postcard to return. Please call to register if you do not receive the letter by the end of September. For more information, please contact Linda Becker at 715-873-4564.
