It’s time to raise your fork so others can raise their hammers to help seniors living in Oakhurst.

Restaurants for Repairs is back once again, and local restaurants are giving a cut of their profits to support Decatur’s annual MLK Service Project.

The project is a volunteer initiative to help low-income Decatur seniors. Each year, over the Martin Luther King, Jr. weekend, volunteers with the project repair seniors’ homes, doing yard work and adding handicap accessible features.
