Beth Tevlin, Wabash Valley Community Foundation, Terre Haute, IN
This s a great and quick community service project. It requires coordination on the front end. There are lots of great pictures for newsletters, etc. I would encourage service clubs to get involved. You make it very easy to do this project.
