On March 18, use your talents—be they baking, writing, or painting—to show SLO city some love.

Love SLO, a day of giving back to the community, kicks off at 8 a.m. with a rally at Mission Plaza. The goal of the event is to meet needs, demonstrate kindness, and impact lives. Volunteers can choose to sign up from a list of more than 25 different service opportunities. Activities still open include writing notes of gratitude to local service men and women, cleaning at Prado Day Center, and giving haircuts to members of the homeless community.
