IMPACT Baltimore
Interested in giving back to the community while in Baltimore? There are two ways to do so:
- Drop off donations (school supplies such as pencils, rulers, crayons, and paper) in the donation boxes at the ASA Booth in the EXPO. Supplies will be passed out to schools in the Baltimore area.
- Connect with other JSM attendees while making blankets (no sewing involved) to be donated to Project Linus. Just drop by Spotlight Monday through Wednesday between 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. to participate.
