Local Heroes
Kay Harmsen
Professionals in a variety of fields can come together to give back to
the community, using what we know, what is dear to our hearts, and what
we're good at. Be innovative, you can do something. Create a cause.
Dave Fletcher
Volunteering brings many people great joy, sense of contribution and sense of community. Participating in activities is leading by example.
Jan Shaner
It's probably essential for all of us to maintain a sense of purpose in
order to be content with our lives. You don't need any special skills.
All you need is to care enough to reach out.
Success Stories
Adopt-A-School
NCAR Warehouse Manager
Before EXTRAs! for
Education we took nine truckloads to the landfill one day. Schools
could have reused most of it. Now we specifically save items in the
warehouse for delivery to schools.

Parenting Place
Debbie Crabb
I like coming to Parenting Place
to make friends with people who have things in common. It can be scary
as a new parent. At Parenting Place parents socialize as a family
together.
