PROGRAMS AND FUNDRAISING<br />

Summer<br />

Picnics<br />

Summer Picnics – Each<br />

year, these events bring<br />

together interested<br />

neighbors, volunteers, and members of A Little<br />

Help. We continued to add dates and activities in<br />

2019, including at great public venues and people’s<br />

homes. If you’re interested in hosting an event, let<br />

us know!<br />

Service Saturday! –<br />

2019’s events were BIG!<br />

Across our four locations<br />

statewide, 282 households received got help with<br />

seasonal yard work from over 1,000 volunteers.<br />

As more and more people became part<br />

of this project, we expanded to organize<br />

14 Service Saturday events statewide!<br />

Tough Talks – Sometimes<br />

“tough,” often light, and always<br />

relevant, expert panelists share<br />

their knowledge and create<br />

space for questions and answers about topics that<br />

may be difficult to talk about.<br />

A Little Help Support Group – Thanks to a<br />

devoted volunteer who is a psychotherapist, a<br />

group of members are able to gather once a month<br />

to visit and discuss the challenges of loss, grief<br />

and caregiving.<br />

A LITTLE<br />

Community<br />

A Little Community –<br />

We continue to work with<br />

companies and groups to<br />

find engaging ways to meet<br />

their service and social connection needs. Our<br />

team built 27 custom days for 14 groups in 2019,<br />

including work projects with older members and<br />

social activities after the events.<br />
