Because… Love Works.

The Love Works team strives to embody servant leadership through nurturing relationships and fostering community partnerships; reflecting the character of Christ. With humility, mercy, love, and a commitment to justice, we work to uplift individuals and the greater community, creating an environment where everyone can thrive, contribute, and find joy in the journey together.

Do you want to make a meaningful impact in the lives of little kiddos while having a blast? Join the vibrant and caring team at the Carroll Area Day Care Center & Preschool to volunteer a couple hours a week! Dive into a world of creativity, laughter, and growth, where your energy and compassion will help shape the bright futures of little ones. Whether you're playing games, reading stories, or guiding curious minds, your time and enthusiasm will create memories and skills that last a lifetime. Become a part of something special—because every big heart starts with little hands.

From volunteer, Robyn Plocher, with her permission:

“It has been a great blessing for me to spend this time with the children. I told my husband recently that I feel like Santa Claus, they all fight over who gets to sit on my lap next…I do patty cake and I read stories but I think my favorite time is when one of the children crawls up just to sit quietly… that is very special to me. The little girl that was so fearful and anxious about my presence when I first started coming, now seems like she would be content to sit with me the whole hour… There is also a little boy who is just the spitting image of my husband and my son when they were each that age. It tickles me.”

And from the Center Director, Keeley Fara, with permission: 

“Robyn has been a huge help and blessing for the providers and children. I am pleased to hear that it has been an equally rewarding experience for Robyn! I had the opportunity to visit and work with Robyn a bit today and all that she says is true. We are so lucky to have her and feel grateful that you brought her our way! Thank you!”

Summer 2024

We are proud to come alongside our neighbors at Carroll Area Childcare Center and Preschool who so faithfully serve dozens of local families each and every day! In the winter and spring we hosted a classroom necessities drive. Thanks to all who went above and beyond to make it a success. Together we were able to deliver many fun and helpful items!
