In the final count, more than 350 Humboldt State University students, staff, and faculty, local citizens and AmeriCorps members contributed a sum total of more than 1,000 hours of service at over 30 different sites in our community. Beaches were cleared, buildings were cleaned, not-for-profit agencies had their service sites revitalized, and gardens were built.

It is important to recognize the wonderful contributions of the Kiwanis Club of Eureka, Henderson Center Kiwanis Club, and the Humboldt Bay Kiwanis Club, who worked together to continue their generous tradition of feeding this army of volunteers.

All three clubs donated significant amounts of time, energy, and money to the project of “serving those who serve.” Please join us in extending our gratitude to all the volunteers, and to the agency representatives who set up meaningful service opportunities.
