Community Service Group-Heifer International
Sunday, June 14,
The Community Service Group is a very loose organization of individuals and families who are interested in doing service for the local community. Most of the opportunities for service are geared so that children and teens can be vital contributors to the service. The events are communicated by Vestry News or email. If your schedules permit your participation, we would love to have your help. Ideas for volunteer opportunities are encouraged from any person or group that has an interest in a particular cause.
Events that are scheduled for the near future:
1.June 14, Sunday – Take the basic tour at Overlook Farm in Rutland, MA. This farm is part of Heifer International, an organization that is committed to stopping world hunger and the effects of global warming on our environment. The educational programs offer the extraordinary opportunity for people to experience some of the challenges of global hunger and poverty – and come away with a re-energized determination to be part of the solution. Their web site is www.heifer.org .
2.July 25, Saturday, – Harvest Day at Gaining Ground Farm in Concord. We will help Farmer Vareena harvest berries and vegetables for distribution at the Concord Free Market. This farm donates 100% of its harvest to local food pantries. Their web site is www.gainingground.org.
These volunteer opportunities are open to anyone with an interest to help out. Friends and families are encouraged. Each of these activities are suitable for children as young as four or five to adults as old as ninety-five. If you have an interest in these activities, please see Dena Caradimitropoulo or email her at mcdc728@comcast.net so that we can make sure that you are on the email list for notification.
