Weekly Community Partners
Fall 2008
Are you interested in volunteering, but don't have a way to get there? Meet up with one of the following volunteer groups and join them in their weekly service project.
Groups meet at Deglman Circle at the time listed. Transportation is provided--just look for the Creighton van. Some sites require a commitment of several visits due to the relational nature of the service; others are equally fine with only a single visit. Please check the information below to see which site best suits your desires and talents.
