    Description

    Serve Your Community. Shape the Next Generation.

    Join Neighbors Eden Project every Thursday at 5:45 PM and be part of something that goes beyond yard work.

    As a Yard Hero, you will help elderly and disabled neighbors maintain safe, clean, and welcoming outdoor spaces. These simple acts prevent city fines, restore pride in the home, and remind our neighbors that they are seen and supported.

    At the same time, you will be investing in the future through our Youth in Action initiative. Young volunteers don’t just show up to help. They work side by side with experienced leaders, learn responsibility, build confidence, and develop a lasting sense of purpose. This is where service and leadership meet in a real, hands-on way.

    Event Details

    When: Every Thursday at 5:45 PM

    Where: Various locations across Midland

    Updates and meeting details are shared through our volunteer text line at 432-255-8500
