TMMK Participates in National Public Lands Day

Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc (TMMK) company volunteers, alongside community members, recently participated in the 15th Annual National Public Land Days activities at the Salato Wildlife Education Center in Frankfort, Kentucky.

During the event, volunteers helped construct the 230 foot boardwalk on the"Toyota HabiTrek Trail," helped with general trail clean-up and maintenance, and built two smaller trails.

In conjunction with the activities at Salato Wildlife Education Center, representatives from Take Pride in America, visited the site as part of the "Voluntour America" initiative.

Best Buy: Relay for Life

I spotted this memo in the local Best Buy. This is an example of the personal social action I discussed in my dissertation.

Is There Something I Can Do?

While this is on the "social action" not "work" side of this blog, I thought a new website worth mentioning. Singers Peter Buffet and Akon have created a website called Is There Something I Can Do? to encourage folks to get involved in positive change. They encourage visitors to blog about the activities they've pursued as well as link to sites that help people get involved in volunteering.
