In June, the Tampa JCCs & Federation’s iVolunteer program teamed up with the Hillsborough Education Foundation to transform recycled paper into handmade journals for students throughout Hillsborough County. The project combined creativity, sustainability and community service, providing students with unique notebooks while giving new life to recycled materials. The volunteer opportunity reflected the power to strengthen our community and make a lasting impact through acts of kindness.
