SERVICE AT ST. ANN'S CENTER FOR CHILDREN, YOUTH, AND FAMILIES (8/1)


Please join fellow ND alumni for an afternoon of service on Saturday, August 1st from 1:00pm - 5:00pm at St. Ann's Center for Children, Youth, and Families. All ages welcome!


St. Ann's Center for Children, Youth and Families has been serving the needs of our community's most vulnerable women and their children for over 155 years.  While in their care, young mothers prepare for their new role as a parent, continue their education, and take their first steps toward a reliable, lifelong career.  Although families may come to St. Ann's while in crisis, they leave with the hope and confidence that only a solid foundation of care can provide.


This volunteer opportunity will primarily consist of brightening the residential areas of St. Ann's. Projects include painting, organizing, decorating, and any other creative activity that will help the living aesthetics to be a bit more enjoyable for the residents. They look forward to working with the Notre Dame Club!

  

Location: 4901 Eastern Avenue, Hyattsville, MD 20782 (see below for information re. transportation if needed)

Date: Saturday, August 1st

Time: 1-5pm


Please email Katie Hughes at kmhughes5@gmail.com if you are interested in joining. Also, if you need transportation, let her know as she will help coordinate rides (or can pick up volunteers at the West Hyattsville metro <green line>, which is close to St. Ann's).

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: ADMISSIONS COMMITTEE

Do you enjoy sharing your love of Notre Dame? The Notre Dame Club of DC's Admissions Volunteers Committee is looking for enthusiastic Domers to assist with representing Notre Dame at college fairs in the DC area and organizing events for local prospective students (two receptions for admitted students in the winter/spring and the summer freshman send-off picnic). The time commitment is minimal and flexible, and all that is required is a perspective on what it is like to be a student at Notre Dame. If you are interested or for more information, please contact Amy Walker '08 (amy.lauren.walker@gmail.com).
