This year we are starting HSA GIVES (Get Involved, Value Everyone, Share) as a way to help the school and church communities reach out to the local community.  We will be organizing several activities over the year to help improve the lives of those around us.  Some ideas include Christmas caroling at assisted-living facilities, making/delivering sandwiches to MACC, and collecting items for food pantries and homeless shelters.

Volunteers will be needed to organize various activities.

Prior to the event, volunteers are needed to assemble raffle baskets with provided items.  The morning of the event, volunteers assist in set-up, serving, and clean up of refreshments and greeting guests.
