From United Way of Central Georgia– Each June, United Way encourages communities to harness their volunteer energy and improve the conditions in which they live.

Be a part of United Way of Central Georgia’s largest community-wide volunteer day of the year. Unite with businesses, community groups and individuals on June 18th at Brookdale Resource Center.

There will be a range of indoor and outdoor volunteer opportunities, from playground landscaping to pressure washing, meal service, and donation sorting.

Clean-up activities around Brookdale will be the highlight of the day, which is being led by Keep Macon-Bibb Beautiful. A truly unique opportunity for the day is painting a large mural for homeless veterans. To ensure that all veterans seeking Brookdale’s services will have a place to stay, the facility has set up a Veterans Room. In addition to adding final details to the mural, volunteers will clean up the previously completed work.

Brookdale Resource Center serves as transitional housing and a resource center for homeless individuals and families in Central Georgia. Brookdale Resource Center’s 90-day program is designed to provide residents with the tools necessary to become financially stable and obtain housing. Brookdale has provided services to over 1,100 residents since January 2021.
