Sixth Graders Volunteer at A-HOME in Katonah
On Friday, May 13, a group of Rippowam Cisqua sixth grade volunteers spent their afternoon at A-HOME creating hanging plant baskets with flowers donated from the St. Luke’s Church plant sale.
These baskets will be distributed to various A-HOME properties throughout the spring. A-HOME is a local nonprofit that, for over 25 years, has responded to our regional needs for affordable housing. Students had the opportunity to learn about the A-HOME program and its mission from the property manager, Gerry Granelli. The students recognized the importance of stepping outside the RCS community and learning about others within our own local community. Our students enjoyed this service opportunity and learned about their neighbors in Katonah and the surrounding towns. Many thanks go to all of the students who contributed to our efforts.
