Business Happenings 50 Years Quincy College cordially invites you to attend a fundraiser to benefit The Quincy College Trust in honor of our 50th Anniversary on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 from 5:30 to 7:30 in the evening at the Best Western Adams Inn, 29 Hancock St. FOOD DRIVE! The National Association of Letter Carriers is sponsoring their annual food drive on Saturday May 10, 2008. Please leave all non-perishable donations by your mailbox for pick up by your letter carrier. For the past 4 years the City of Quincy has provided a building to sort and package food for the pantries. This year volunteers are needed from 3:30 PM until 7:00 PM at the Quincy Park and Recreation Department located at 1 Merrymount Parkway, (next to Adam’s Field), to sort and box food. Drivers are also needed to pick up and transport food from the Quincy Center, Wollaston and North Quincy Post Office to the Recreation Department for sorting. This is a great opportunity to help your community and for children, of all ages, to accumulate volunteer hours for school or other activities. Discovering The Entrepreneur Within Tuesday 4/29/08, 6-9 PM Quincy College, 150 Newport Ave Extension, 02171 The Society of Entrepreneurs (S.O.E) 2008 conference will present a better understanding of entrepreneurship. Our economy, society, and organizations all over the world are in great demand of entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs are visionaries as well as ambitious and resourceful individuals. Entrepreneurs are leaders who motivate others around them to complete their given task. These attributes are adaptive to any career field.
Fundraiser Family Fair Saturday May 3rd, 1-3 PM Beechwood Knoll Elementary School Gym Two student groups, Students for Social Justice and Eco-Serve, have chosen to go beyond the Quincy area in assisting others. Eight churches in Managua, Nicaragua are attempting to start neighborhood-wide recycling programs, providing not only jobs for the unemployed, but raising environmental awareness and physical clean up of empty lots in the city. Students are hoping to raise money to provide start-up funds for this project – as the project becomes financially stable, a certain percentage of their profits will fund similar projects in the area. The primary fundraiser will be a Family Fair, to be held at the Beechwood Knoll Elementary School gym on Saturday, May 3rd from 1:00 – 3:00 pm. As the enclosed flyer states, there will be many activities for children (both fun and educational), and for adults, there will be an art fair and a silent auction of donated community services.
