HandsOn Battle Creek works with the desire to be a part of something bigger, the drive for change, the aspiration to make a difference, and turns it into action through volunteering.
Community BarnRaising is a vibrant and innovative program that uses the old-fashioned idea of a “barn-raising” whereby the community comes together at the same time, in the same place, to achieve a specific goal.
HandsOn Battle Creek celebrates many National Days of Service, as well as some other great local days where volunteers can give back through service. Learn more about you can become involved in giving back through National Days of Service and some of our local festivals.
Many companies here in Battle Creek are giving back through volunteerism. Corporate volunteer is when a company encourages and supports its employees and retirees to volunteers their time and skills in service to their community.
We are collecting books, books, and more books. We have a drive going currently where individuals who donate children’s books at the HandsOn office can be in the running to win one of two $25 gift certificates to Walmart. Walmart has generously donated a $75 dollar gift card to HandsOn for our BarnRaising.
Please stop by the HandsOn Office to donate your children's book for 8:00 am till 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.
