Service Project Opportunities

ADAPTIVE SPORTS 

A former student of Mr. Salituro is now working at the Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association (GLASA).  They provide sporting events for people who need the sport modified in a way so that they can compete, such as wheelchair basketball. 

If you are interested in sports or physical therapy or special ed, this may be a great opportunity for you. They have a 5K fundraiser coming up that you can volunteer for by clicking here.

 Click here to learn more about opportunities to get involved with GLASA. You can call and ask for Micaela Fedyniak.


SOUP KITCHEN ON THE NORTH SIDE

There is a church in Chicago called St. Thomas of Canterbury. They generously and humbly serve hundreds of meals to those in need each year. From their website: 
Our Soup Kitchen is open every Tuesday and Friday throughout the year, except on Christmas Day. We currently serve 175 to 200 people each time. The doors are open to guests from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Volunteer activities include the preparation of meals, setting the tables, serving the meals to our seated guests and, of course, cleaning up!
Jim Eder has been running the soup kitchen for years and he is a really great guy. If interested in volunteering, call Christine, the volunteer scheduler at 773-878-5507. Be sure to visit their 
volunteering link here for more info.
