Global Campus Shiremont Makes A Meal for the Upper Valley Haven







Global Campus Shiremont, which includes participants from New Hampshire and Vermont, made a dinner of lasagna, salad, bread and desserts at the Adult Shelter on October 28, 2011. We chose the Haven for our Community Service project because they help people in need no matter what their situation is. After the meal was prepared, we shared the fruits of our labor and ate dinner with some of the residents. It felt good to help others who are less fortunate than we are.

GC Bradford Helps Their Community!

In September, Shawn heard a radio advertisement saying that the Bradford Food Shelf was low and in need of food items. She shared the idea at her campus as part of a discussion about a fall Community Service Project. Our campus liked the idea and created a food drive to help out. We set up a collection box at Upper Valley Services. Robin set up another box at the Bradford Public Library, and Shawn arranged to have one above the Local Buzz. We collected nearly 100 non-perishable food items and delivered them to the food shelf. Valorie reported today that the food shelf is now doing well. Jeannie says our food drive was, "Pretty good!".
