Kernersville Spring Folly-May 4
The annual Spring Folly Parking Lot Fundraiser in Kernersville is coming up on Friday, May 3rd and Saturday, May 4th. 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. Youth ages 8 years old and up can volunteer with adult supervision. Youth must be 16 years old and older to volunteer without adult supervision. We have 2-hour volunteer shifts, and each shift can accommodate 10-20 volunteers. Volunteers can come early or stay after to enjoy all that Spring Folly has to offer. You can see all the available volunteer shifts and sign up online at https://www.signupgenius.com/
