Thank you to everyone who shopped local and participated in our spring fundraiser for a brighter future together with local businesses Soaps by Nature<\/a> and Cotter Cares Baking<\/a> whose fundraisers for BG ended May 31st.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

100% of funds raised will encourage youth, amplify local voices, and provide tools and resources for Burlington community members and organizations to Green Up, Clean Up and Make the Switch to living more softly on Earth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
