Kids and Staff create an artistically-inspired donation box for local food shelf

     It started with an idea.  The Johnson Food Shelf needed donations.  Sterling Market agreed to be a drop-off point for donations.  But, a collection box or bin was needed.  Swirling conversation and interactions inspired Laraway staff and kids to design, build and paint a beautiful donation bin depicting Vermont scenes.
     Cal Stanton built the sturdy wooden bin with kids in his Laraway workshop.  Staff members Kristen Murphy and Sue Lenel worked with kids to decorate with mountain and river landscapes.  Staff delivered the donation receptacle to Sterling Market and voila, donations are coming in!
