Our Alumni Department is happy to announce that we will resume our in-person service at St. Lawrence Haven, the sack lunch program run by St. Vincent DePaul. Volunteers will meet at St. Lawrence Haven at 244 E. Rich Street in downtown Columbus on the third Thursday of every month from 9:30 a.m. to noon to prepare and package meals.
In addition, we are looking for volunteers to provide much needed sandwiches, fruit, drinks, chips, and treats for the patrons of St. Lawrence Haven. These items may be brought to St. Lawrence Haven while we are volunteering, or may be dropped off at Bishop Watterson between 8:30 and 9:00 a.m. on the third Thursday of the month.
The need continues to be great and we would love your help.
If you would like to become involved, please email Terri Kernan at tkernan@cdeducation.org.
