AIAWS had the first event for our 2024 #ACTIVATE Community project! We're partnering with Crossnore Communities for Children for a Design-Build Project. Together with their staff & the kids, we're designing and building an incentive cart to be used on campus, bringing art supplies, ice cream, hot chocolate, and more to all the kids on campus. ![]()
This event was the design portion, and seeing the kids bring their ideas to life on paper was so exciting! Their imaginations were endless and their creativity was unmatched! We can't wait to come back on campus and build & decorate this cart with them!![]()
Thank you so much to all of our volunteers and our sponsors for helping us make this event possible!![]()
