Join us in volunteering to uplift women, through service at "Wooden It Be Lovely"

ABOUT: Wooden It Be Lovely offers hope and employment to women healing from lives of poverty, addiction, and abuse. We do this by providing transitional employment, mentoring, recovery tools, education, community networking, and a safe community. Our women are employed to refurbish and sell donated wooden furniture, sew unique products and craft hand poured candles. This transitional employment empowers women to move towards economic stability and an enhanced wellbeing for themselves and their children.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Volunteers will help to tag and bag items, as well as possibly prime (paint) furniture to get ready for detailed artwork painting

WHAT TO WEAR: Clothes you don't mind getting dirty/painted on

Transportation will leave at 12:30 from the Student Union circle drive. If you prefer to meet at the site - please contact the Volunteer Center at least 24 hours in advance (volunteer@uis.edu, 217-525-8843, Student Union 116)
