A majority of students worked
at Florence Crittcnton, a home
for young, unwed mothers.
Although 104 students signed
up, only 50 were able to work tfo
to the heavy rain as a result of
Hurricane Fran.
“More students volunteered this
year, but with the rain it was
unfortunate that they couldn’t
participate,” said Kelly Shrout,
coordinator for Protestant
Campus Ministry.
Although the rain canceled
several projects, Shrout said she
is attempting to put together a
group of students to volunteer at
the Penn State-Bchrcnd Day G» r "
Center.
The Day Care Center was
among the canceled sites and is in
need of some playground work.
Students also volunteered their
time at the Barber Center, and
Braybcndcr Field comp! 'ting
some painting and landscaping
work.
One of the major projects in
the Day of Caring was the
Neighborhood Arthouse. The
Arthouse was formally a. filling
station and garage. Volun
from General Electric finished the
rooms with dry wall and built a
linoleum dance floor.
The Ahhouse provides a place
for the young people of Eric to
learn about the arts inch 'ing
music, martial arts and dance
Some of the projoe
undertaken by volunteers toot
longer than one day. Among
these was the construction of a
handicap ramp at the American
Lung Association.
The Day of Caring has grown
from 1,060 participants four
years ago to over 4,000 this year.
The United Way Day of Caring is
held annually on a Saturday in
September.
