How You Can Share in HARBEL

HARBEL Community Organization is supported financially by contributions from member organizations, individuals, churches, businesses, and government grants.

Individuals may participate in HARBEL Community Organization by serving on the Board, serving on a committee, working on a special project, or volunteering in one of HARBEL's programs.

The Community Relations unit coordinates a giant Community Flea Market which draws vendors, buyers, gawkers, and fun-seekers from the whole region. Held the Saturday before Mother’s Day, the Flea Market features flowers and plants suitable for planting in the ground or enjoying inside the house.

A new tradition to HARBEL took place in late Summer of 2011. HARBEL hosted a crafter's fair which featured vendors who have exhibited their wares in many locales throughout our region. Plans to include this event on HARBEL's calendar for next year are being considered.

Individuals and businesses can also form partnerships and/or make donations to HARBEL's individual programs, if they have an interest in housing or substance abuse treatment.

Individuals can also provide financial support while having fun by joining HARBEL staff and community members in our annual fundraising event each fall.
