Once a quarter, United Way of the Piedmont coordinates a simple collection project
that gives individuals and groups an opportunity to get involved with their community.
Quarterly projects are designed to require little time or money but have a huge
impact on the individuals who benefit.
This is our Quarterly Project schedule for 2007:
February – Bags of Love
Assemble small gift bags with candy, personal hygiene items, and a kind note
to be distributed to Mobile Meals recipients on Valentine’s Day.
May – Stack, Stock & Roll
Collect paper goods and cleaning supplies to benefit local shelters and community
centers.
August – Tools for School
Collect various school supplies to provide support for kids returning to school.
These are distributed through local community centers and after school programs.
November – Stock that Pantry!
Help provide hundreds of hungry families in our community with food for the holidays
by hosting a canned good drive. Local food pantries distribute these goods to
the needy in our community.
