In exchange for contributing four hours of community service, volunteers will receive tickets to signature Boost Mobile RockCorps concerts in their area.
On Saturday, August 4 BMRC volunteers will paint hallways, classrooms and help reorganize storage areas at the S.J. Green Charter School in conjunction with New Orleans Outreach. Sunday, August 5 local youth will help prepare the New Orleans Charter Middle School for re-opening since Hurricane Katrina by organizing and painting classrooms, assembling furniture and more.
