VALLEY IMPACT
|
Valley Impact
Valley Impact provides short-term projects that give JLP members the opportunity
to offer hands-on assistance to organizations in the community. Valley Impact was
formed in 1990, providing League members the opportunity to learn about their community's
needs, while assisting other volunteer organizations. Past projects include Rebuilding
Together, Race for the Cure, Salvation Army Angel Trees, March of Dimes Baby Bundles,
La Casa di Cristo, Homeward Bound, Golden Gate Christmas Box Distribution, the
Phoenix Rescue Mission and Done-in-a-Night projects. Done-in-a-Night projects are
short-term projects where wish list items are collected, typically at our General
Membership meetings, for community projects or Valley non-profits based on the need of agencies.
A few of the past recipients have been The Salvation Army, Phoenix Theatre and My Sister's
Place. More . . .
