May 2 @ 9:00 am – 4:30 pm
Perry Lutheran Homes’ “Project Deliver the Love” is coming up on Thursday, May 2. Volunteer shifts are 1.5 hours from 9AM until 4:30PM. Over 100 volunteers, called #DifferenceMakers, are needed throughout the day. Each volunteer shift will start at Perry Lutheran Homes Eden Acres Campus (1300 28th Street, Perry) to fill baskets/bags with fresh fruit, snacks, activity books, devotionals, encouraging notes, Christ-witness items made by Perry Lutheran Homes residents and Acorns & Oaks Christian daycare children, and more. Then, in pairs or small groups, our volunteers will “deliver the LOVE” to 350 older adults in northern Dallas County!
Here are 3 ways for you to “Deliver the LOVE”

Your heart will be touched as you make your in-person deliveries to older adults in the community and/or care centers. Volunteers have said how fun, organized, meaningful and rewarding it is. Volunteer as a family, gather a group from church, recruit co-workers, or engage your kids and/or grandkids.
