Ways You Can Help

WE NEED YOU for an hour, a day, a week, or a lifetime.  Volunteering for MCREST is an excellent way for high school students to earn hours for community service.

Funding is being reduced for nonprofits across the board requiring us to depend more on contributions from the public.
