NOVEMBER ENGAGEMENT: MONTH OF GRATITUDE

November is National Gratitude Month, a time to celebrate and share positivity in our lives and the lives of others, creating a community that is united. Expressing gratitude helps people connect to something larger than themselves as individuals and strengthens relationships. Throughout the month, we encourage you to share gratitude with others in the community.

 

VOLUNTEER

  • Veterans Week of Service
    • Veterans Week of Service is a celebration to honor America's veterans for their patriotism and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.
