JARC, a nonprofit agency 
serving individuals with 
developmental disabilities 
in 80 locations, includ-
ing 24-hour care in group 
homes, independent living 
settings for adults, and 
respite services for children, 
teens and young adults, 
hosted its annual “Flower-
a-Thon” volunteer event on 
Sunday, May 23. 
The event, which returned 
this year after a brief hiatus 
due to the pandemic, drew 
74 volunteers from JARC, 
NEXTGen Detroit and Repair 
the World Detroit to help 
mulch, plant flowers and 
weed around 14 of JARC’s 
group homes. 
Mulch and flowers were 

donated to JARC from the 
Elkus Family and Great Lakes 
Landscape.
