Hands on DC is an all-volunteer project that creates better schools and brighter futures for students in the District of Columbia. The Hands On DC Work-a-thon is an annual event where groups of volunteers from the area do refurbishment work at local schools. Projects include painting, landscaping, cleaning, work on the playgrounds and anything else that can help improve the learning environment for the students. Volunteers do not need any special skills!
This year (April 2009) Team API helped out at Ludlow-Taylor School. The API team had a great time sprucing up the interior and exterior of the school by painting, cleaning and gardening. This was the sixth consecutive year API sent a team of volunteers to the event.
Hands on DC is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization that conducts an annual citywide work-a-thon to improve the physical condition of Washington, DC public schools, raise funds to support local college scholarship programs, and encourage greater community involvement in the public schools.
