**I know it's a lot, but please read in its entirety**
Hi, friends! This is our project for Global Youth Service Day and this year it's going to be super exciting! We're collaborating with the Eta Pi chapter at U of D Mercy to do an awesome service & fellowship event to help out youth in the Detroit area. This is our first large-scale collaboration with another chapter in a long time, so we're hoping we get a great turn out.
We will be working with Neighbors Building Brightmoor, which is a community garden in the Brightmoor neighborhood of Detroit that provides fresh fruit & vegetables to the community. This is an organization I have worked with in the past, and it's very near & dear to my heart. They are very excited to have us there for our project! Service will run from approximately 9:30-1:00 and then lunch + fellowship from 1:15-3:15.
HEADS UP!: This is the Friday of Spring Fling weekend, but I promise we'll be back to EL no later than 5 pm barring extreme circumstances (zombie virus, sharknado, alien invasion, etc.). If this is too late for you to leave for Spring Fling, I'm sorry, but I promise that next year we'll have plenty of collabs with other chapters than you can go on!
Since we absolutely need to have drivers to get us to Detroit, you can't sign up unless there is room in someone's car. For driving, you'll get 3 hours of service (approx. 1.5 hrs of driving both ways) if you don't ask for gas, and an hour of service if you ask your car to chip in for gas money.
This is going to be so much fun and I hope you're all as stoked as I am! -Tayler | |
