The press is rolling in

More and more communities are taking notice of what ShareFest is doing, and newspapers from different neighborhoods are spreading the word about the Workday.

This is a bit of an article about Eagle's Nest Preschool that ran in the Beach Reporter newspaper:

Nonprofit helps beautify El Segundo Preschool ‘Nest’ 

by Jennifer Evans 

Hauling wood chips, building cubbies and painting classrooms was all part of a volunteer effort by the community as well as the nonprofit organization ShareFest, when beautifying El Segundo’s Preschool “Eagle’s Nest” earlier this month.

Kelli Keller, preschool administrator and assistant principal at Center Street Elementary, said she was excited about the turnout of the event held May 2 at the city’s preschool.

“There were so many volunteers present, willingly working toward creating an improved environment for our community’s youth. They really need to be commended for their hard work,” Keller said.

This is just one of the many projects receiving attention. Every mural volunteers painted, tree they planted or quarter they deposited had an impact on the local community. These small, community newspapers are a great indicator of a city or neighborhood's attitude toward the work ShareFest is doing.
