Come help us address oodles of envelopes at our Appeal Mailing.

When: Friday, November 21st 2:00pm - 6:00pm

Why: 80% of WYP kids receive scholarships thanks
to the donors in our community.

It's time once again for us to mail out our Fall Appeal. This letter invites our community to support Wilderness Youth Project, and the gifts we receive in response are one of the main reasons that we can keep doing what we do.

 

To make this a personal and effective mailing, we hand-address each and every envelope (more than 2,000)- and this event exemplifies the principle that "many hands make light work."

 

Could you join us and help with addressing and stamping letters?

 

FAQ:

 

Q.  Can I come for just part of the time?

A.  Absolutely. It is best if you can come for at least 2 hours to ensure reasonable productivity.

 

Q.  Can I bring my kids?

A.  Older kids can be very helpful in stamp-sticking and envelope sealing, and are welcome. This is definitely a focal work task though, and if we get too many younger kids it can get a bit crazy. We trust your judgment!

 

Q.  Does this qualify for community service hours for my teen?

A   Sure does- we're happy to sign off as many hours as they work.

 

Q.  Should I bring a friend to help?

A.  Yes please!
