HANDS ACROSS THE HARBOR
May 16, 2026
Join your neighbors for a Day of Service to make our city STRONGER
Inspired by Hands Across America, an initiative by the music industry 40 years ago to raise money for great causes, we hope to unite Safety Harbor on May 16, 2026, for a Day of Service, featuring as many organizations of any kind who wish to create and lead a service project, and every volunteer we can find to to complete every one of those projects. Volunteers also will have the option to make a donation to the Mattie Williams Neighborhood Family Center, which does great work for all of Safety Harbor and beyond, if they wish.
