The NDDC is volunteering at the Father McKenna Center in Washington DC (metro accessible!) on Saturday, May 21. The Day Shelter welcomes approximately 95 homeless men each day for an array of services. Without volunteers, the shelter is not be able to be open on Saturdays - so this would really help them out! They need volunteer support 7:30 - 1:30, so we're looking at 2 shifts (7:30-10:30, 10:30 - 1:30). The nominal schedule is as follows:
7:30 AM Arrival and Quick Orientation
8:00 AM Serve Coffee/Tea and pastries
8:30 AM Serve breakfast
9:00 AM End of breakfast / Prep lunch & Other Shelter Activities
11:30 AM Group meeting in Chapel
12:00 AM Serve lunch / eat with the men
12:45 PM Clean-up
Please email MaryKate Robinson at marykate@alumni.nd.edu if you are interested and what your availability is (what shift you would like). And feel free to pass on the invite/request!
