Empowering Our Young People
Posted on April 26, 2018
“Youth 4 Community was developed to bring youth leaders from the local high schools to learn more about philanthropy and community needs, along with developing new skills. It is very rewarding to know that we as young people can create positive change here in our own community within priority areas for youth.” says Allison Jones, who was this year’s Committee Chair.
Working Together at Day of Caring
Posted on April 24, 2018
In 2017, in just one day, DOC volunteers completed the equivalent of 30 hours’ worth of weeding for the Daniel Brooks Memorial Garden at Shkoday. Junnila notes that without DOC, that is an undertaking they would not have been able to complete alone. She encourages other local not-for-profits to consider submitting a project for the 7th Annual Day of Caring which takes place on Saturday, June 16, 2018.
