School enrichment
group seeks volunteers
Impact is a nonprofit organization in Pownal whose mission is to support educational and enrichment opportunities for the students at Pownal Elementary School.
Since the school is part of the Pownal community, the group is looking to community members for some support. A couple volunteers are needed to help develop a clear marketing and/or fundraising plan for next year. It is anticipated that the project would not be a huge time commitment.
Impact meets the first Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. in the school gym. For more information, contact Robin Hodsdon Morin at 688-4212.
