The month of November brings great things for SVS! The Second Saturday program will have its 3rd installment on November 8th from 9:15am-1pm. This month, we're going to the A Better Way shelter in Muncie. The shelter houses abused and battered women and children in an undisclosed location until they can re-locate to get out of their dangerous situations. For A Better Way, we will be doing light office cleaning and reorganization that they do not have the time or resources to complete during the busy work week. Currently, all volunteer slots are full, however, keep checking the SVS website (www.bsu.edu/svs) as a slot may open.
On November 15th, SVS will host the 17th Annual Fall Leaf Raking event. This event, designed to assist Muncie residents who are elderly or disabled, is a time-honored campus tradition. Each year, around 140 Ball State students travel out into the community and rake leaves for those who cannot take care of their yards themselves. Leaf Raking is SVS's biggest and most popular event of the fall semester. As of today, all volunteer slots are full, however, be sure to check the SVS website (www.bsu.edu/svs) as volunteer slots may open up.
If you have any questions about Second Saturday or Fall Leaf Raking, call the SVS office at 285-3476.
Happy Halloween, from SVS!
