Grab your workin’ shoes and join the monthly Second Saturday community workday with our friends at R3 Development. R3 exists to empower youth through leadership development and job skills, mainly in the construction field. So, while our Serve Day may look like a construction project, we're really working to build bridges, create opportunities, and foster a brighter future for the youth of East St. Louis.
Once a month, several organizations and churches come together to work alongside the youth in the R3 programs on a community project. All skill levels are welcome, but if you have construction skills that you are willing to use, let us know!
We’ll send a list of projects just a few days in advance. See you on the East Side!
This opportunity is a great way for families and groups to serve together, but R3 has an age limit of 12+ and requires all students 12-15 years old to be accompanied by an adult.
