Jericho Road Project
The Jericho Road Project's mission is to match the talents and resources of First Parish of Concord with the needs of those community based organizations and small businesses that can help individuals and families become economically self-sustaining. Currently, we are focusing only on organizations, small businesses and communities in nearby Lowell, Massachusetts. Since our launch in early 2003, our volunteers have served scores of organizations in Lowell through two core programs: SpringBoard and BEANE.
Springboard - Jericho Road's flagship program - provides customized services to nonprofits to help them achieve their goals. The type of services is virtually unlimited, ranging from board building, organizational assessment, and strategic planning to marketing strategy, grant writing, and Web-site development.
Jericho Road's other core program - Business Experts Assisting New Entrepreneurs, or BEANE - helps entrepreneurs launch and grow small businesses in Lowell by providing business training and one-on-one coaching to prospective and new entrepreneurs in need of help. This service is provided largely in partnership with the Lowell Small Business Assistance Center.
By providing services focused on economic sustainability, Jericho Road/First Parish volunteers strengthen and contribute to the vitality and quality of life in Lowell. See http://jerichoroadproject.org for more information.
Description of task: Opportunities change quite frequently and there is a newsletter and volunteer list which is used to get volunteers for a job.
