Hello Servicers,
We are putting together final reports of students volunteering efforts throughout the year. Did you volunteer somewhere this year and want to be recognized for your effort? Please fill out this quick little form to let us know!
For volunteering, plenty of opportunities abound this summer for help. Places such as Rippling Waters, Cultivating Communities, Preble Street Resource Center and Wayside Soup Kitchen could always use help. Just reply back to this email to get involved!
And here are our featured projects this week:
