Volunteers will primarily engage with residents playing outdoors, trying new games and activities, doing arts and crafts activities and, in general, socializing and having fun! The goal for this opportunity is to help the residents break the learned COVID habits of hunkering down indoors in front of a TV. Get outside and enjoy the weather, the sun, the friends, and new experiences.

Seed bombs are a fun way to engage individuals with mental health needs and disabilities in an opportunity to commune with nature while providing them an opportunity to work on their fine and gross motor skills. Seed bombs are also a great way for individuals to give back to the community and make a positive impact on the world around them. The launcher is a fun way to make the seed bombs go the distance and particularly helping some individuals with mobility challenges.
