Reading residents will have the chance to help clean up the Schuylkill River and enjoy outdoor activities during the city’s fifth annual RIVERZILLA Community Day on Saturday. The event, a collaboration between the City of Reading Public Works Department and Schuylkill River Greenways, is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Repair Together is a large network of friends who raise money to bring busloads of young people from around Ukraine to destroyed villages, to help people clean up their homes.

Over the past several years, however, the number of volunteers has dwindled.

The online platform was created by University of Pennsylvania students

The COVID-19 crisis is limiting the valuable social connection that volunteers make with clients.
