How are you spending your free time? Consider volunteering.
Volunteers In Action is a student-run organization that provides St. Thomas students with the opportunity to interact with the St. Paul and Minneapolis community through service. By only giving a couple of hours a week, students can make a difference in someone’s life.
Applications will be available beginning today outside the UST Center for Intercultural Learning and Community Engagement, located in Room 153, Murray-Herrick Campus Center. Applications are due back to CILCE on Monday, Sept. 27.
Five weekly service opportunities and volunteer sites for fall 2010:
- CLUES
- Adopt-A-Grandparent
- Boys and Girls Club
- Tommies Park and Rec
- M.E.D.S.
Plus a new monthly volunteer site:

For more information about these sites, stop by VIA’s table at the Activities Fair from noon to 1 p.m. tomorrow, Tuesday, Sept. 21, or e-mail Volunteers In Action.
