BRATTLEBORO — Groundworks Collaborative thanks all of the local businesses, sponsors, and volunteers who made this year's Camp for a Common Cause such a great success.
Roughly 35 people spent the night of May 18 camping on the Brattleboro Town Common to raise funds and awareness for our work with our neighbors experiencing homelessness. Together we raised just over $23,000 for Groundworks' shelter and housing-support programs.
This event is a great way for our community to come together around the issue of homelessness and to call attention to it with a visual representation of what can be an invisible problem in Brattleboro.
If you would like to support Camp for a Common Cause with a contribution, visit GroundworksVT.org and click on the Events tab, where we will continue accepting donations for the camp through June 30. Donations can also be mailed to: Groundworks Collaborative, P.O. Box 370, Brattleboro, VT 05302, Attn: Camp.
