Make Posters to Spread Positivity!
Make Posters to Spread Positivity!
We're looking to spread some positivity around the community by putting posters with the message "Together We Will Overcome" in the windows of local businesses and using images of the posters to create a slideshow on this website. If you're looking for an activity to do with kids or a project to do in your extra free time, please make a colorful poster to remind your community we're in this together. Use whatever you have around the house -- printer paper, construction paper, poster boards -- anything to spread some cheer! You can deliver posters inside the side door to St. Peter's Meeting Hall or send them electronically to cazcovidresponse@gmail.com.
