NEXT WEEK : Get Involved in the Portland Community through Husky Day of Service!

The 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! Faculty, staff and alums are invited to join us too! Everyone who joins us is guaranteed to have a great time while meeting new people and giving back to our local community!

We'll provide transportation to sites, breakfast, lunch, and everyone gets a FREE t-shirt! USM Gorham residents, make sure to board the 8:45AM bus from USM Gorham to USM Portland, as this is the HUSKY DOS SPIRIT BUS!

Here are just a few community organizations that are partnering with USM for this year's Husky Day of Service:

Animal Refuge League
Cultivating Community
Greater Portland Charitable Furniture Center
Habitat for Humanity ReStore
King Middle School
Maine Veteran's Home
Partners for World Health
Preble Street
Ruth's 3Rs
STRIVE U
