Volunteer to Plant the Garden at St. Mary's Church Shelter
Bethesda
Project was honored to be a featured nonprofit at the CCRA's Annual
auction in April. Stay involved with Bethesda Project this spring and
summer by volunteering to plant the garden at St. Mary's Church Shelter!
St. Mary's church has an attached small courtyard with raised garden
beds. The guests of St. Mary's Church are looking for a group of
individuals who can supply plants, garden soil, and time to help them
make the garden beautiful. This activity can take place during the day
or in the early evening with advanced planning. If you and your group
are interested in this opportunity, contact Bethesda Project's Volunteer
Manager, Sarah Erdo, at (215) 236-7850 or by e-mailing serdo@bethesdaproject.org.

Make Your Business Our Business
Sometimes life throws you some unexpected curves. CCRA Member and
owner of Center City Notary and Center City Apostille, Judith Lawrence
is the author of the new book entitled
Make Your Business Our Business.
The book is a step-by-step guideline as to how to become an
entrepreneur. Whether a notary business or a knit shop, Judith and
co-author Daniel C. Lewis outline the steps including policies, procedures and profits. Lawrence and Lewis believe this book will be a community initiative and will encourage the "entrepreneur" in everyone.
