A new initiative for NHS this year is to have each member choose a community service project to complete on their own. Several members have already chosen their projects, while others are in the process.
Madison Hedgecock chose to be in charge of the Kids Shopping portion of Christmas in the Valley. Aided by NHS president Jacey McIntire, Madi helped select gifts for kids to shop from, organized the gift-wrapping area, and supervised that part of the activities. 🚂🪀🧸🎁
Jacey's project is to manage the community Food Pantry and Blessing Box. Madi and Jacey shopped for Food Pantry supplies, and Jacey will be stocking the Blessing Box each week as the year progresses assisted by Hannah Marker and NHS member Lorelai Strausberg. 🙌🏼🍽️❤️
