Helping Hands Day began in South America in 1998, and events will be held in other cities the same day. Last year, about 50 volunteers helped with the Diamond Bar project.
“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Diamond Bar is organizing the event, but we are hopeful those of other faiths or service interests will join us for the betterment of our beautiful city,” Spence said.
Ronald Reagan Park is at 2201 Peacefull Hills Road, Diamond Bar.
