JSC community works with the United Way Firewood Project
JSC and local community members move and stack wood for the United Way of Lamoille County Firewood Project as part of the college’s “SERVE Local” program, which sponsors local service opportunities during the academic year.
On Saturday, Sept. 14, ten Johnson State College (JSC) community members participated in the annual United Way of Lamoille County Firewood Project. Volunteers spent the day stacking and moving firewood. The Firewood Project strives to provide free firewood to local families for the winter season.
Participants volunteered through JSC’s SERVE program, which provides direct service based on community needs to encourage student leadership development and provide assistance to JSC’s community partners. SERVE sponsors community-service events to connect students to the community and provide help where it is needed. These “SERVE Local” events take place in animal shelters, nursing homes, community centers and outdoor locations.
