The school district started a new program just before the holidays called Neighbor to Neighbor. The purpose of the program is to connect family volunteers with others within their neighborhood who may be in need of assistance with snow removal, light household tasks, or local errands.
Families who are interested in volunteering can sign up with the school district by contacting Lisa Thompson at 262-279-1053 or emailing her at lisa.thompson@gcj2.k12.wi.us.
The district is working on collecting volunteers, and then will be reaching out to the community to find residents who are in need of assistance. If you are in need of assistance, please reach out to Lisa Thompson as well at 262-279-1053 or emailing her at lisa.thompson@gcj2.k12.wi.us.
It’s a bit chilly out there and our BES artists help us remember that inside of our building as well.
