Community Service
Giving back directly to Barrington through hands-on volunteer work all year long.
Hands-on giving
Every member serves
BJWC members give back directly to the community through active volunteer work. Every member commits to at least two hours of community service each year, because we believe that through direct engagement, we gain a deeper understanding of the impact we have and how other groups are working to help too.
Each year we take on hands-on service projects with local organizations. Last year, members volunteered with Smart Farm of Barrington.
A signature effort · Supporting BACOA
Meals on Wheels
One of our longest-running commitments. BJWC proudly supports the Meals on Wheels program run by the Barrington Area Council on Aging (BACOA), which provides a hot, nutritious meal to older adults who are unable to prepare meals for themselves, whether because of health or income.
BJWC provides volunteer drivers who deliver meals on the 2nd Tuesday and the last day of each month, year-round.
