Fort Campbell, KY – The Montgomery County Safe House will be one of many worthy organizations given a helping hand on Friday, September 16th when Lend Lease and Campbell Crossing hosts its 16th annual Community Day.
Lend Lease Community Day encourages all employees around the world to give something back to local communities.
Employees are invited to nominate a project and create small teams to work with the community group or cause. Activities can include helping senior citizens, the homeless people, people with disabilities, the environment, working with children/youth and animals. Around 15 employees from Lend Lease and Campbell Crossing will partner with Urban Ministries to provide minor renovations and various work to the Safe House.
Tressa Hall team leader of the group said the Clarksville Safe House project was chosen because of the important role this organization plays in creating an environment of specialized support services that allow for immediate needs of the victim and healing to occur.
“It is a privilege to be able to partner with an organization such as Urban Ministries and work to improve the Safe House,” said Tressa Hall, Community Day Team Leader. “If we can just play a small role in helping the victims of domestic abuse, it is worth the work.”
This is Lend Lease’s 16th consecutive Community Day, and since the initiative began in 1996, employees have volunteered over 500,000 hours worldwide.
