Spring Wrap-Up Garden Party
On Hold
As many of the Programs and Services run by the PWC take a short break during the summer months, the Spring Wrap – Up is the perfect way to congratulate the Facilitators of the programs on their success and bid them farewell for the summer and to celebrate the Fall, Winter and Spring Terms of the Programs and Services offered by the PWC . It also acts to display the wonderful things the PWC is doing in the community. The Event is organized and performed by a committee of PWC Staff and Volunteers.
Volunteer Luncheon
On Hold
PWC can not thank enough to our valuable volunteers. During this event, at the beginning of the year, Staff is thrilled to be able to serve each of you who give so often to help others. Only good things can happen when connecting people with the same kindness and patience.
Fundraisers
Jerry Dober Sunday Breakfast
Every Sunday (except holidays) - On Hold
