Did you know that helping others makes you feel good? If you do it in a group, it’s also fun! That’s why we hope you’ll join us for our annual volunteer day, held this year on Saturday, April 12.
Spring into Action brings together Domenica Foundation friends and supporters with our community partners. Together, we open the door of opportunity for underserved Camden residents.
There’s a job for everyone. Children are welcome! Please read the partner and project descriptions carefully and sign up for the project that interests you. Registration closes April 4. Popular sites will fill up long before then–so don’t delay!
We’ll meet at Cathedral Kitchen at 8 am on April 12 for a welcome breakfast. Everyone gets a T-shirt!
At 9 am, you’ll travel to the partner site you chose when you signed up. We’ll hook you up with a ride from Cathedral Kitchen if you need it.
When you arrive, you’ll get a tour of the partner site and learn about its work. Then, dig into your chosen project! Work till noon or till you get tired. You’ll find that volunteering with others is both fun and fulfilling.
Each partner site has a set capacity for volunteers, so it’s important for you to sign up for the project you want. Children are welcome at any site, but some sites have kid-friendly projects, noted below.
