How You Can Help
Community Volunteers donated 3 garden plots in the Sandpoint Community Garden and gave lessons in growing organic vegetables! Food was used for our Weekly Community Dinners and supplemented Circle Leaders food budgets.
Circles™ believes that everyone in our community has their own personal talents and gifts to share. What you are thinking is just something “you’re good at”, may be a tremendous asset to your community!
There are many enjoyable, fulfilling and exciting ways to support the Northwest Circles™ Initiative in our community!
Provide a dinner for our Weekly Community Meeting. Invite your family or friends to join you and share the fun!
Volunteer for childcare for our Weekly Community Meetings.
Donate food, to be prepared by our Circles Leaders, for our Weekly Community Meeting.
Become a Circle Ally and share your gifts, talents, life experience and most importantly, your friendship with a family who is working towards self-sufficiency.
Become an ad hoc ally. These allies may not be able to commit to a long term (18 month) relationship with a Circle Leader, but can give of their time with shorter commitments , e.g. tutoring a child or adult.
Join the Guiding Coalition, which is the governing body for our local Circles Initiative.
Fundraising. Let’s face it, some people have a gift for fundraising. If you are one of those talented people, Circles can use your expertise!
