Thank You, Volunteers!
Our principal received the following heartfelt thank you note from the Program Director at Collective Roots for our volunteer work at the school garden in East Palo Alto:
Ms. Scott,
I wanted to send a thank you to the Monta Vista Honors Society Students who came out and volunteered in the Collective Roots school garden during our November 21st work day. It was wonderful to have them in the garden and an inspiration to our elementary and middle school students who were also helping at the work day.
We would be delighted to have any of your student out to our garden for service opportunities in the future!
All the best,
Eron Sandler
Program Director
Collective Roots
Together, we are making a difference in our community. Keep up the good work!
Thanks,
NHS Officers
Volunteer Event a Success!
2009 has proven to be a busy year so far for Monta Vista NHS. Despite being a nascent organization, the Monta Vista NHS has donated over 600 hours of volunteer time this year. More than 90 of our members have participated in 27 volunteer activities.
We are also proud to be mentioned in the Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Volunteer Newsletter for our participation in the Festival in the Park and want to thank our members for making yet another volunteer event a success!
We have posted a few more events. Please come and join us in making a difference in our community!
Please fill out and bring a volunteer waiver form when you come to one of our events.
Thanks,
Monta Vista NHS
