Eleven Rotary Club of Scottsdale  volunteers recently partnered with city of Scottsdale’s Operation Fix It --- neighbors helping neighbors --- to complete a yard landscape installation of drought-tolerant plants and add 15 tons of gravel for a Scottsdale homeowner in need.

The second Operation Fix It project for the club, the first was a house painting project in February 2019, according to a press release.

Operation Fix It assists Scottsdale home owners with exterior improvements to their properties when they are unable to address them due to financial/physical constraints.

Rotary Club of Scottsdale Arizona Community Service Project Director Laura Biever noted how “thrilled and thankful,” the home owner was for the hard work and beautiful landscaping job done by volunteers.

In addition to landscaping, the Rotary Club of Scottsdale presented Michelle Holmes, Operation Fix It program manager, a $1,000 check for use on future home improvement projects within the city of Scottsdale.

Operation Fix It program is not funded by the City of Scottsdale Arizona and operates on financial and in-kind donations with the support of volunteers contributing “time, sweat and dedication to the program’s mission which is: To find creative solutions to assist our residents in need with helpful hands and generous hearts,” the release said.

Visitors to club meetings are always welcome, the release added.
