On June 15th United Way of Salt Lake’s Young Leaders volunteered at the Hser Ner Moo Welcome Center to build square foot gardens. The gardens will be used by the residents to grow their own vegetables and will also be incorporated into the lesson plans for the children at the Welcome Center.
Below is an email Young Leaders received from Hser Ner Moo Welcome Center shortly after the project:
‘I want to extend my thanks to all of he members of Young Leaders who came to the gardening box project at Hser Ner Moo last Wednesday. Thank you for always thinking of us and the community of South Salt Lake. We are full of gratitude and we highly value this partnership. Our kids are excited to plant flowers and vegetables this summer. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you!’
Young Leaders help United Way of Salt Lake make a real difference in people’s lives and in our community through volunteer, networking, and social events. On an individual basis Young Leaders enjoy many exclusive events and activities throughout the year. If you’re interested in learning more about Young Leaders join us to celebrate summer with some thrilling fun at Lagoon on Friday July 8, 2011.
