The numbers are in from this year’s “Make A Difference Day” and McKinney area nonprofits received help from over 500 volunteers who contributed over $40,000 worth of time.
Project grants were awarded to nine nonprofits to assist them with supplies for their projects. There were activities to fit all kinds of volunteer interests and we look forward to next year’s event having an even bigger impact on McKinney.
Filmed and edited by volunteers, this year's event was documented on video. Click here to enjoy a recap of the accomplishments.
Mark your calendars for Make A Difference Day 2013 on October 26th.
