ABOUT SERVE NOBLESVILLE
OUR ROOTS
SERVE Noblesville has been increasing its impact since its early days as part of Faith, Hope, Love. In 2008, the Noblesville initiative had 57 volunteers and 11 partners/groups who worked on a total of 12 projects in the community. In 2018, it had 650 volunteers and 53 partners/groups who completed a total of 58 projects during the four-day blitz.
The growth coincides with a shift from neighborhood-focused projects to community-wide initiatives. Anyone can submit project ideas to SERVE Noblesville, and if volunteers can get it done, they will. Nothing is off-limits.
Since its formation in 2012, SERVE Noblesville has engaged more than 4,100 volunteers to help with nearly 265 community projects.
A BIT ABOUT US
SERVE Noblesville uses community projects to create connections that wouldn't happen otherwise. Neighbors come together with a shared goal of making a difference. While the projects help improve the livability of Noblesville -- making it more healthy, active and beautiful -- the real power of SERVE Noblesville lies in its ability to connect the people who create that stronger community.
The fact that SERVE Noblesville has continued to grow, even as potential volunteers' lives become busier and more demanding, is a testament to its ability to make those meaningful connections.
Some volunteers make SERVE Noblesville an annual tradition, taking vacation to spend time with their SERVE Noblesville friends. Some make it a family affair, introducing the community-service mindset to multiple generations. Still others find themselves on the receiving end of a SERVE Noblesville project, then later volunteer to help someone else who needs a hand.

KEY PEOPLE
Committed to SERVE
PATRICK PROPST
Board of Directors
With 20 years of making memories in Noblesville, Patrick's heart beats for this charming city and its incredible people. Patrick wears many hats, from ministering alongside Faith Community to being the part-time Executive Director for Serve Noblesville or helping people and groups “Discover Their Good” through his coaching business, Pachlain. Additionally, he serves on the Board of Directors for Noblesville Schools Education Foundation and Advancing Noblesville Foundation.
When he's not navigating life's crazy twists and turns with his community engagement, Patrick's living it up with his trio of teenages alongside his wife, Kami, a true-blue Noblesville native. Patrick's a man of many talents and quirks. He's winter-loving culinary wizard whipping up delicious dishes, a outdoor enthusiast, a green-thumbed gardener, a biker who loves the open road, a podcaster, a film aficionado, and enjoys the occasional bourbon and cigar. His collection game is strong, with a treasure trove of books and a jaw-dropping 1,000+ PEZ dispensers. Most of which were sweet gifts from friends over the years. Despite the number of commitments that Patrick holds, he is never too busy for people. He loves the opportunity to meet new people, listen to their stories, and hear how they are putting good out in the world.
