ORGANIZATION: PENNIES FOR POVERTY 2 CENTS 4 CHANGE INC

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

This is a huge help and a service opportunity to the Lantern Lighting Festival in support of Ovarian Cancer Awareness

We need movers to lift equipment for the Lantern Lighting Festival onto a truck and offload at the Bartlet Mall, Pond Street in Newburyport on Sunday, September 1. (Rain date is Monday, September 2. If you are not available then, you can sign up for Sunday only. Thank you!)

The lantern lighting ceremony is a beautiful annual tradition where participants decorate and light lanterns in memory of loved ones and float them on the waters of the Bartlet Mall Frog Pond. It is a free community event.

What we need:

Two movers in the morning shift (estimate): 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 pm
Two movers in the evening (estimate) 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm

Movers will load equipment onto a delivery truck (in the Newburyport area) and offload at the Bartlet Mall

Let us know the shift you would prefer or if you can do both!

Thanks very much

Mission Statement

Pennies for Poverty is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization whose mission is to ease the impact of poverty on the people of Greater Newburyport by endorsing models of assistance that promote dignity, supporting allied organizations both financially and collaboratively, increasing community awareness of poverty through citizen education, and inspiring and encouraging volunteerism.

Description

Pennies for Poverty, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was founded in 2008 with the belief that if everyone in the community does a little to help those in need, we can substantially reduce poverty and improve the well being of all members of the community. The original mantra for the organization was "2 Cents, 2 Cans, 2 Hours, Together." That is, everyone should put aside 2 cents a day and 2 cans a week and volunteer 2 hours a month so that together we reduce poverty.
