Bret Harte Elementary Community Service Opportunity This Friday!
This Friday, October 29th, BLSA will once again visit San Francisco for an afternoon or laughter and mentoring with the incomparably intelligent, unbelievably talented, and impossibly adorable children of Bret Harte Elementary. We would make the case for your participation, but this kind of opportunity sells itself.
We will gather outside of Bannan Hall at noon and leave shortly after. We plan to stay at Bret Harte until about 3:30 pm, and then return to campus.
Please RSVP if you can attend.
As usual, carpooling is encouraged. If you are committed to attending and plan to drive, shoot us an email and we'll find some passengers for the ride.
For more information, contact our Community Service Coordinator, Jason de Barros, jdebarros@scu.edu.
