Thank you to everyone who came out to volunteer at the Walk to End Alzheimer's event last Saturday! We have organized some weekly group volunteering opportunities at the Little Sisters of the Poor – St. Mary's Home that are exclusive to Pals. LSP is an assisted living facility one block from the LP campus and is a great way to spend a couple of hours helping out elderly people in need. There are also opportunities to volunteer at the DePaul Parish Food Pantry where you can prepare meals and create much-needed healthcare kits. Below is an interest form with all the volunteer opportunities coming up, FILL IT OUT SOON IF YOU WANT TO GET INVOLVED.
