Sept. 11 is a national day of service and remembrance. On this day, you are invited to take part in one of a number of initiatives:
- Stop by Helmick Commons between 10 a.m.–12 p.m. to pledge to vote in the upcoming election and to learn more about how to vote.
- Participate in a Pathways to Racial Justice and Allyship webinar from 12–1 p.m.
- Help make masks for youth at the Burt Boys and Girls Club in a socially-distanced mask-making event from 4–6 p.m. in Olmsted.
- Participate in the “at-home” Reggie’s Sleepout to raise awareness of youth homelessness in Iowa.
- Drop off donations to one of the Little Free Pantries.
- Volunteer for a volunteer opportunity listed on drake.edu/volunteer.
- Or, create an idea of your own and post about it on social media.
Anyone who posts about their service on social media and tags @drakeservice using #DrakeServes will be entered into a drawing to win a #DrakeServes T-shirt featuring Griff. Learn more about the day of service. For questions, contact Amanda Martin at amanda.martin@drake.edu.
