Community Service
RAY OF HOPE PROJECT, SEPTEMBER 29, 2013
Volunteers are the most important resource at The Ray of Hope Project. They repair and renovate homes, provide and deliver lunches, raise funds and spread the word about Ray of Hope. Members of Gamma Iota Sigma helped clean up a local block by clearing trash, weeding, and painting.
The Community Affairs Team of Gamma Iota Sigma is dedicated to planning and executing community service events that improve our university as well as the surrounding community. The Community Affairs Team has previously coordinated and participated in events with Philabundance, Neighborhood Bike Works, Temple University Gardens, Greater Philadelphia Cares and the Philadelphia Brewery.

John Welsh Elementary, December 19th, 2013
In addition to serving the community with my professional organization, I contribute to causes that aid the less fortunate. Every year around the holiday season, I participate in a charitable endeavor made by employees of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. We spend days putting together stockings and gift bags for the students of John Welsh Elementary, an inner-city school in a poverty-stricken area. We then deliver those gifts to the students as “Santa” and “Santa’s Helpers”.
