Henry's List
|
|
Think of it as an Angel Tree - but only all year long! Our Henry's List initiative really started to take shape in 2016 as we worked to match up those in need with those who can help.
We've partnered with Providence Connections (a family ministry of the Sisters of Division Providence) and Light Of Life Rescue Mission to help identify those in our community that are working towards a better life for their families - but need a bit more help.
This past year we've made several dozen deliveries of household items - beds, dressers, appliances, furniture and clothes - to those around us that need a little help.
We're going to grow this program in 2017 and need help with both donations (beds & dressers are at the top of the list) and delivery (working to schedule delivery days) to make this happen.

Emma's Project Earth
|
|
One world is enough for all of us.
As long as we take care of it.
Because we collectively place a large burden on the planet, it's up to us to help to limit or reverse that burden when we are able. Emma had a vision to help Mother Earth by planting trees, recycling and cleaning up litter left behind by others. We can see that as a reality if we all work together.
This past year we've sponsored individual projects, simple in design, to help reduce our burden on the world around us. These Emma's Project Earth projects included litter collection, tree planting and butterfly habitat support - small in scale but hopefully large on impact.
We'd love to see the number and scale of projects grow this coming year - up to and including a community garden where our volunteers can come together to grow produce off the land and share with those in need.
