February happenings

• 

Half of February is already over! In the past two weeks, I’ve been spending time in our communities around CT.

In the beginning of February, I visited Temple B’nai Chaim in Wilton and talked to children attending the religious school service about energy efficiency. When a family signs up for Home Energy Solutions with the Temple, Temple B’nai Chaim adds a leaf to a tree (see picture below). I love this idea! The “greening” of this tree is inspiring more and more children to go green!

Last week, I attended a luncheon at the Westport Woman’s Club, a Meet and Greet with members of the Westport Downtown Merchants Association, and a Bingo Night fundraiser hosted by Coleytown PTA. It was nice seeing our coalition partners and meeting new ones!

I also went to the Portland Senior Center with Chamae to teach seniors how to create Valentine’s Day crafts with incandescent light bulbs. Check out our sweet creations below!
