Southeast Tech Helps Rake Up Sioux Falls

Forty-two Southeast Technical College students, faculty and staff grabbed their rakes and helped five Sioux Falls homeowners do fall cleanup in their yards during STC’s Service to Community days, held in conjunction with the greater Rake the Town event in Sioux Falls.

Rake the Town in Sioux Falls is organized by Workers on Wheels, a senior services program supported by the Sioux Empire United Way and administered through Active Generations.

Recipients must reside within Sioux Falls or Brandon city limits, be over the age of 60, and do not have family available in the area to help with their yard work and are not financially or physically able to do the work themselves.

To piggyback off the Rake the Town effort, Horticulture students independently raked the yard of an STC donor, and HVAC students did leaf bag pickup at various locations after the event.
