Day 3️⃣ Week of Caring!

We've had a great three days connecting our nonprofit community with volunteers. Today, our friends from International Storytelling Center were painting at Boys & Girls Club of Johnson City/ Washington County. As the Boys & Girls Club undertakes several renovation projects, every volunteer and every brushstroke helps build a future for young people in our community.

📚 The first of our community book drives wrapped up last week and Johnson County knocked it out of the park! Thank you to the Johnson County Senior Center and Farmers State Bank for being collection locations.

With the community's help, we were able to deliver two full bins to Johnson County Tennessee Department of Education for their summer book bus.

Want to support future book drives? Keep an eye out for additional counties coming soon!
