NAYDO Philanthropy Live

NAYDO Philanthropy Live are service projects in each NAYDO host city sponsored by The Redwoods Group. Projects are chosen by the host city and conference attendees have the option to volunteer their time to come a day prior to conference for projects which have included food banks, furniture banks, ministries, teen homes, homeless shelters, veteran shelters and foster care services. We’ve planted trees, built boardwalks, cleaned oceans and rebuilt many YMCA gardens.

What began as a single project in 2011 with 36 volunteers in Anaheim, CA to this weeks 4 projects and over 157 volunteers.  This year, we included a drop-in project and assembled over 1,000 welcome bags for YMCA International Services clients.

Over the years, Philanthropy Live has grown, and we have now completed a total of 56 projects with over 1150 volunteers totaling 4,600 total hours in 11 years!
