Bridging the Community meeting

The next meeting of Bridging the Community takes place on Wednesday, March 11 from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at The Kennett Friends Meeting, 125 W. Sickle Street, Kennett Square.

This is an open meeting with no membership, just good hearts who want to discover ways to “bridge” resources with needs. At the meeting, you will also discover ways to get involved by learning about the community and volunteer opportunities in the area. The group has met every other month in various locations in town since 1998.

Bridging the Community meeting builds community through first hearing from attendees about what they have to offer or the needs they have, then taking time to talk to each other, and finally coming back and sharing with the group the “bridges” that were made.

Please come and bring your resources and needs to “bridge” with others. You may also bring a new idea of an activity you would like to start in the community, and are looking for others to join you. More information is available at bridgingthecommunity.org.
