We just returned from an engaging, fun, and educational 2023 Mid-Winter Conference, held at Jubilee Ministry in Irondale on Saturday, January 28th. We celebrated seeing each other, renewed old friendships, ''ZOOMED'' with some new friends, and were introduced to some great NEW service opportunities such as:
-
Partnering with SENIOR PALS at Auburn Univ. to serve our senior citizens; great projects for Excel, Jr. Excel, and Collegiate clubs
-
Contributing sheet sets to GRACE MIINISTRIES to assist girls in foster care in Fairfield, AL
-
Forming a fund with the Community Foundation of South Alabama (CFSA) in ADEC's name to manage and grow funds for our ADEC Youth Awards programs
-
Learning about fundraising, creative service projects, ONUG events, and more from four of our ADEC clubs (Tuscaloosa, Florence, Irondale, and Mobile)
