Kernersville Spring Folly-May 4

  The annual Spring Folly Parking Lot Fundraiser in Kernersville is coming up on Friday, May 3 rd and Saturday, May 4 th . The fundraiser is co-organized with Main Street United Methodist Church. They allow us to use their parking lot, help with logistics, and encourage their members to volunteer. While parking is free, donations to Crisis Control Ministry of Kernersville are suggested. The fundraiser last year raised $8-$9k for us! All donations collected support the Kernersville office. The funds raised helped us assist 2,506 residents of Kernersville with emergency assistance last fiscal year. We will be implementing online donations through QR codes this year for the first time ever and hope to raise even more.   Kathy Hoffner, Director of Kernersville Office, and I would love to have NC Leadership Academy students cover one of the volunteer shifts for the parking lot fundraiser this year. Volunteers will help direct parking traffic and collect monetary donations.
