Workers from Verizon will be volunteering at the Hugh J Boyd School in Seaside Heights [on Thursday, March 28].

As the Jersey Shore continues to rebuild following Hurricane Sandy, nearly 200 workers from Verizon will donate time today to help work on repairs at the Hugh J Boyd School.

Employees from the Verizon Leadership Development Program, along with senior leaders from Verizon, participate in a day of volunteer work at the school, organized by Jersey Cares.  Seaside Heights Mayor William Akers also will be on hand.  The volunteers will paint classrooms; remove weeds and plant flowers around the school; build new picnic tables to create an outdoor learning environment; paint planter murals and paint line games on the school’s blacktop to be used during recess; and build new benches to be installed along the Seaside Heights boardwalk.
