Mayor's Work-Alongs

At his 2009 State of the City address Mayor Dyer launched Strengthen Orlando, our plan to identify activities to help create jobs, support local businesses and connect residents with vital resources and information. Community service is an integral part of the Strengthen Orlando plan and provides an opportunity for everyone to get involved. Therefore, Mayor Dyer has transitioned his series of work-alongs to focus primarily on community service related events. We hope you will take the opportunity to join him in his efforts to get involved and give back to the community. Together, we can all help Strengthen Orlando.
