If ever you've ventured to the Caf or
the Student Center in general, you may have noticed the office across
from the Caf with the large windows. This is the Center for
Leadership and Volunteerism. This office sends out the
Helping Hand(out) through student email accounts, created by the
Coordinator of Community Engagement, Chelsea Flieger. This newsletter
gives various opportunities to volunteer throughout the community.
For those of you involved in organizations who are looking to plan an
event or even advertise for your own event, then you should consider
using the CLV as a resource.
Some events that the CLV are currently
promoting:
Sweaters, Pears and Teddy Bears – A
collection of canned foods, college books, baby/maternity supplies,
toy, and clothing drives, all hosted by various organizations will be
wrapping up this week. Make sure you get all your donations in before
the deadline! For more info, check out the latest issue of the
Helping Hand(out) at:
