Uintah Basin Foster Grandparent Program

The Foster Grandparent Program was able to help Altamont Elementary with their Fall Carnival. Everyone had a FANTASTIC time helping with carnival games and handing out prizes! Very special thank you's to all of our volunteers who participated- including those who drove all the way from Vernal to help out! We'd like to sincerely thank the Duchesne County School District and Altamont Elementary for contacting the FG Program so that our volunteers could be involved and do what they love- helping children and the community.
If your school or organization could use some extra volunteer help, please contact Lauren Schwanz at UBAOG (435)722-4518.
