Shante Anderson hoped the CommUNITY Summer Jamz/Resource Fair would serve as a way for Surry County residents to learn about resources available to them in the community.
On that count, she considers Saturday’s event to be a rousing success.
It also turned out to be a lot of just plain fun for those involved as well.
More than 170 people attended the event, along with representatives from The Shepherd’s House, Helping Hands, Surry Medical Ministries, the All Star Prevention Team, and Northern Regional Pediatrics.
Anderson, who is executive director of Equality in Action, said prior to the gathering she wanted folks in the community to turn out to meet representatives from the vendors, to learn what services they offered to individuals and families.
