Weekend Projects: Three Local Ways to Give Back
We found three ways to share the love with our community this weekend.
1. Give Blood
The Outlets of Little Rock will host a blood donation drive in partnership with Arkansas Blood Institute on May 2 from 9 a.m.-2:00 p.m. Head to the Old Navy parking lot to participate in this much-needed event. Social distancing will be followed to keep donors and staff safe.
2. Submit Your Family’s COVID-19 Story
We are living through historical times. Help preserve Little Rock’s COVID-19 experiences by filling out the CALS Butler Center for Arkansas Studies history questionnaire or submitting your own media.
3. Donate $5 to Support Girl Scouts + Nurses
Arena, a healthcare hiring technology, is partnering with Central Arkansas regional Girl Scouts office to treat nurses at Baptist Health and UAMS Health with boxes of Girl Scout cookies during nurses’ week. They are collecting donations in $5 increments. Please consider contributing before May 6 for delivery by May 10. Here are three ways to contribute:
-
