EVENTS

Can the YSEF Impact Foundation count on YOU to support us in one of our NEW ventures? 

This year we are launching a new initiative, Families Helping Families, with TWO opportunities for how YOUR family can help other YS families. 

1. Adopt our community garden for a week this spring/summer. 

How does this work? 

The garden at Luther Memorial Church is well established with amazing produce that feeds our Impact Pantry families all season, however, we need help tending/harvesting/weeding/watering. 

Can your family sign up for 1, 2, or 3 weeks between May-September to take care of the garden? 

— Time commitment is only about 2 hours per visit. 

— Info, training, and materials will be provided!

— Just pick your week(s)!

2. Do you have generous neighbors?  We are looking for families to coordinate an in-kind collection of much needed items for the Impact Pantry.

How does this work? 

—We’ll provide you with marketing materials, a list of priority items. You & your kids can canvass your neighborhood with flyers (or emails!) 

—Arrange to pick up the items or place a collection bin on your porch. 

—We can provide you with paper bags to leave at your neighbors doors with a list of what we need! 

This is a GREAT way for young kids to help their fellow students and gain some volunteer experience!

Collection dates can be done whenever convenient for you!  Kids can personalize the materials and can help select which items to request from our list of suggestions.

Please let us know if we may contact your family for either (or both!) of these new ventures by completing our Google Forms.  We know that Families Helping Families can make a huge IMPACT on the YS community!
