In three weeks, USM will be carrying out the 5th annual Husky Day of Service. The event will take place on Friday, March 14th with registration at Woodbury beginning at 9:30AM. All projects will have finished by 4:00PM. Students living in Gorham are advised to take the 8:45AM bus to Portland.

Husky Day of Service is an opportunity for USM community members to join together to better the Greater Portland community. Individuals and groups (clubs, sports teams, student organizations, etc.) are welcome to serve! We would like to see the participation of students, staff, and faculty this year.
