“MORA” cleaning, please!

Our team had the joy of helping one of our community partners with some yard clean-up. Mount Olivet Rolling Acres (MORA) is one of the top providers of services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. MORA offers day-programs, in-home services and even a long-term residential program. Each year, we get to visit a few MORA neighborhood homes and help with some spring cleaning.

We got some fresh air, we got to see immediate progress and we got to be together with co-workers (it’s been over a year!). It felt SO good!

Our spring cleaning day prompted us to share some tips and tricks if you’re tidying up at home.

We understand that cleaning out old files can create piles of paper that you should dispose of securely. Our office is happy to support your spring-cleaning progress by offering onsite shredding. Please call our office at (952) 475-9700 to connect with Alyssa Davis for a drop-off date and time.
