Volunteers providing facelift for area schools through Project Partnership 

Springfield & Joplin, MO –  On Friday, June 25th and Saturday,  June 26th, volunteers from James River Church will be providing renovations to schools  in the Joplin and Springfield

In Joplin, the teams  will be partnering with Roi S. Wood Alternative School for landscaping, cleaning and  painting projects as well as cleaning and sanitizing every bus in the Joplin Public  Schools fleet. 

In Springfield, they will be teaming up with Pittman Elementary  and Parkview High School  where they will be doing landscaping updates,  cleaning and painting over 110 thousand square feet of wall space.

It’s a part of James River Church’s “Project Partnership,” an annual community  partnership between schools in Southwest Missouri and James River Church. This is  the 23rd year for the event, which was created to make a difference in the community by  assisting local school systems with projects that may not be included in regular  maintenance schedules or budgets. 

Volunteers will spend the day painting, deep cleaning, and landscaping. 

James River Church sees Project Partnership as an opportunity to give back to those  who have given so much of their time, talent, energy, and resource to the education and  betterment of the greater Springfield and Joplin areas.
