AmeriCorps 9 11 Day of Service

Join the Robinson Community Learning Center and the Ansari Institute for Global Engagement with Religion in a service activity intended to honor the legacy of those who lost their lives and those who responded heroically to the events of September 11, 2001. Together we will build four cedar flower boxes as a gift to the homeowners of the new Habitat for Humanity homes constructed in the Near Northwest Neighborhood as part of the inauguration events celebrating the inauguration of the Rev. Robert A. Dowd, CSC as the University of Notre Dame's 18th President.

In addition to commemorating the events of September 11, we know that shared opportunities to collectively engage in service and share meals together nutures dialogue, cooperation, and civic engagement. We hope this event will continue to build upon the multi-cultural, multi-lingual, multi-generational, and multi-faith community already established at the Robinson Community Learning Center through its preschool and English classes and carry that forth into the broader community. Bringing out the best in America, this event wil embody the motto on the Great Seal of the United States of America, E Pluribus Unum, "out of many, one."

A light meal will be provided. RSVP here.

This event is sponsored by the Robinson Community Learning Center, the Ansari Institute for Global Engagement with Religion, the United Religious Community, and the University of Notre Dame's Department of Art, Art History, and Design through a grant from the AmeriCorps State program overseen by Serve Indiana.
