FAMILY SERVICE INITIATIVE *repeat*
Join the Greenbriar community in our annual event to come together and give back! This is a wonderful opportunity to talk to Greenbriar students about the power of sharing with those in need, and caring for our community in a variety of hands-on ways.
This year’s projects will be a combination of at-home projects as well as at-school collections.
