Join us for a Hearts in Service volunteer opportunity as Asheville and Woodfin YMCA members come together to care for our local community and environment.
We will gather near Reynold’s Village in Woodfin and work along the surrounding area, focusing on litter removal and beautification around local businesses and roadways, including sections leading toward the U.S. 19 bridge. In just 90 minutes, your time and effort will help improve neighborhood safety, visibility, and overall community pride.
This is a low-barrier service opportunity designed to be accessible and welcoming. Families, first-time volunteers, and those looking for a meaningful way to serve are encouraged to participate.
