Project Connect- Day of Service for those in Need
Hosted by Tip of the Mitt Spartans.
Project Description
Project Connect is a day of service for those in need in Charlevoix, and Emmet Counties. During this one day event hundreds of individuals will be connected with a range of health and human services provided by around 50 local non-profit agencies and other businesses. Free services are available in areas such as: Education & Employment, Food & Nutrition, Health & Wellness, Housing & Finance, Kids & Parenting, Veterans Affairs and other Social Services.
Volunteers are needed to help event set up, greet and check in guests, and direct attendees to the resource areas they are in search of. Help your neighbors get connected to the free community resources they need.
This is will be our second year volunteering with Project Connect. Last year we received rave reviews on our TOTM Spartan volunteers so let's pitch in again!

About Project Connect 231
Project Connect is a day of service for those in need in Charlevoix, and Emmet Counties. During this one day event 400 plus individuals will be connected with a range of health and human services provided by around 70 local non-profit agencies and other businesses. Free services are available in areas such as: Education & Employment, Food & Nutrition, Health & Wellness, Housing & Finance, Kids & Parenting, Veterans Affairs and other Social Services.
The idea behind the event is for people struggling to make ends meet, to have access to the services they need without the confusion, red tape, and waits that often characterize social services. And for those who don’t understand the complicated social services system, they can be directed to the agencies in our community who can assist them in meeting their needs.
