 Meredith
Joy has volunteered with the Enrichment Association on and off for
the last two years. Her strong writing skills are utilized to help
write grants to fund UAEA projects. Meredith helped develop UAEA's
strategic plan, and has also helped in various design projects. In
addition, Meredith has brought new partnerships to the Enrichment
Association with Yay Bikes! and Amethyst. Through Meredith, Yay Bikes! has paid for all expenses related to the development of the Pedal Instead
website. Meredith has assisted greatly in research related to
sustainable transportation by showing how bicycling is as an empowerment tool
for those who are marginalized because of socioeconomic background,
age, gender, national origin, and/or weight. Upcoming Farmers' Market Events  The Urban Farmers' Market offers fresh, locally grown & affordable food, as well as cooking and gardening demonstrations. The Market is located at 1934 No.Fourth St. @ 18th, and lasts from 9am to 1pm. Join us during our upcoming Market events: July 25, August 22, & September 26 |
