| Get
in line! Volunteers dance the night away at the 2007 Volunteer Appreciation Dinner |
Sign
in please! Many of the faces you see in our offices are volunteers too. If you
have an administrative or IT talent we can put it to good use. | |

It takes a community --to build a garden! Thanks to Nova Southeastern University
and Mary Ellen Rosen, RN, MSN, our community gardens' project allowed homeowners
to create their own home-built gardens. Participants were taught how to grow their
own produce to substitute healthy eating choices into their diets. Gardeners were
also provided helpful information about the damaging impact of UV rays on eye
health. Each participant was provided with free sunglasses. |
All
hands on deck! Thanks to Rebuilding Together Broward County, Inc, Dave Reierson,
Jane Katterhenry, and Georgetown University Alumni Association we were able to
resurface our parking lot at no cost. | |
| Back
to school in style! Thanks to community partners like Staywell Health Care, Target,
UPS, Templeton, the Broward County School Board and people like you we were able
to give out over 1000 backpacks to kids in Broward County. |
Teen
Talent Rules at CFP Our volunteers come in all varieties, and have many different
talents. Check out how these kids put their good ideas in to action!
Got
breakfast? The Boys and Girls Club paid us a visit (their 4th in a year) and brought
some of their favorite breakfast foods. Not only did they provide the food for
the day, they stuck around to help us prepare and serve it. | |
| Mitzvahs
abound! Zachary Krieg decided to make his bar-mitzvah extra special by donating
$2000 in food and $2000 in cash to CFP. He even stayed to help us stock the shelves.
Here's a picture of Zachary, moving so darn fast our camera couldn't keep up! |
Smile!
You just spent your summer making the world a better place. These three amigos
spent their entire summer working at CFP. Summers and school holidays are great
times to earn some volunteer hours, learn job skills and make a difference right
here in your hometown. | |
| What's
brown and green and comes with 50,000 lbs of food? Girl Scouts! These girls put
their scouting skills into action and came up with 50,000 pounds of food for our
food pantry. Way to go girls! |
Pack
it up! WHO Fights Hunger, from Nova University School joins in the fun of sorting
and packing food and supplies. | |
