The Problem

One beautiful, sunny, afternoon in May, the DO SOMETHING club gathered in the back of Brooks Elementary school to perform a wonderful service for a worthy cause. Jennifer's Garden was started several years ago to honor one of our teacher's daughter, Jennifer, who was killed in an automobile accident. The garden was in need of clean up and re-planting ... which is exactly what we did. We asked for donations from Do Something members, and received over 40 plants that had been discarded or divided. These plants were planted by the Do Something kids. We watered, and hoped to watch them grow. Additionally, we weeded the gardens, cleaned up garbage, and trimmed some bushes. A great time was had by all.....even the bunnies who feasted on a few of the plants after we left! We hope that Jennifer's Garden continues to be a beautiful memorial for Jennifer for years to come.
