Community Nights Featuring Homework diners have kickoff for the 2022-23 school year. And with all the excitement happening at our schools many of the UWABC staff have been taking time to meet students, families, and teachers.
On Wednesday, October 19th, 2022 the UWABC community schools, Asheville High School/ SILSA and Reynolds Middle kicked off the first of the 2022-2023 school year Community Nights featuring Homework Diners.
In June 1921, in the immediate aftermath of WWI, a crippling pandemic, and a historic 100-year flood, community leaders from five civic organizations came together to form the Asheville Community Chest. The first of its kind in North Carolina, the idea was both simple and powerful; they would unite their fundraising efforts into a single community-wide fundraising campaign, the proceeds of which would support local agencies engaged directly in vital community recovery efforts.
