Make a Difference Day: Oct 26th, 2024 - Marietta College

Every year, McDonough Leadership Students at Marietta College coordinate service projects with local Community Partners for a fall campus-wide day of service called "Make a Difference Day." We wouldn't be able to do it without the partnership of community organizations like yours to work with student volunteers! 

This announcement is a request for project(s) for this year from YOUR organization!

Make a Difference Day will take place this year on Saturday, October 26^th from approximately 9am to Noon.

Projects should have enough work for 6-25 volunteers for 2-3 hours, should take place on Saturday, October 26^th from 9am to Noon, and be within a 30-minute drive of the college campus. There is some flexibility, just let us know.

Host organizations should designate a contact person who is willing to meet with students approximately once per week for 30-60 minutes between September 4^th-October 25^th. Additionally, we request this person also be available via email, text, or phone to provide guidance and answer questions as students plan the project. These meetings can be held via Zoom/Teams/Google Meet if needed. The first meeting must take place sometime between September 2^nd - 6^th; this is where you'll first meet our students and discuss your project and organization. After that, please work with your group to schedule meetings at a time, location, and frequency that works best for everyone.

 

If you have questions or want to talk through some ideas, let us know and we’ll set up a time to talk on the phone or Zoom! Feel free to reach out with any questions!
