 Joplin, MO-  Year two of rebuilding Joplin should bring even more volunteers to town.

Since the tornado more than 130,000 volunteers have helped Joplin.   

Organizers with the group "Rebuild Joplin" say 6,000 volunteers from around the country will arrive in early June to continue that mission.

They say once the summer months end the volunteers will return home that's why rebuild Joplin is hoping more local people will step up to help.

If you would like to volunteer with Rebuild Joplin you can call 417-623-0065.
