On
September 1st, UMBC students are gathering to kickoff Fall semester with
some service work! We will be heading into Baltimore City to work with
Parks & People Foundation and Project T.O.O.U.R. We will get our
hands dirty in the garden, work on the kids playground and help paint
some of the buildings' structures. A great way to get involved in
service, meet new friends and have some fun.
