Photo Essay on Junior Interim Meeting at SHARE - March 2012

In March, we invited everyone of any age to join us for this year's final visit to SHARE.  Throughout the day 75 people helped work on projects for SHARE. As we arrived the space became louder and full of energy. We quickly circled up to welcome everyone and split into five teams: two groups to paint, two groups to pack food and make boxes, and one group to sort through supplies. As we split off into our groups we quickly found out that kids love to paint!  Read Rebecca Sullivan's photo essay about what we accomplished at SHARE.
