PROJECTS & EVENTS
Projects:
I will be adding more information to this page once we get closer to completing projects and dates have been finalized. For the meantime, the projects I have planned include:
-
A Rise Against Hunger Event (formerly known as Stop Hunger Now)
-
The building of a Little Library with global content to stretch our audience out into our community.
-
A river & trail clean up in Pisgah National Forest to preserve our waters and lands for the generations that follow us.
Events:
More information on specific events will be sent out shortly.
Global Action Days:
There are certain days throughout the year that have been adopted as a 'holiday' of sorts. Examples of these include: International Day of the Girl, Global Youth Service Day, and International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
