Charlotte area members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints recently held a Day of Service. More than 3,000 volunteers collected 105,000 pounds of food for the Second Harvest food bank, and worked on 20 projects at parks, community centers, homeless shelters and schools. At Gastonia’s Pleasant Ridge Elementary (above), 130 volunteers built benches, painted and did landscaping work. Mormon headquarters in Salt Lake City sent a film crew to shoot footage of all the work. It will be shown on BYUTV at the church’s general conference this fall.
