On Tuesday, September 14, members of La Roche College's administrative staff participated in the 14th annual United Way Day of Caring, sponsored locally by the United Way of Allegheny County. Staff members volunteered their time by painting two rooms and a rooftop section at the YWCA in downtown Pittsburgh.
"We were pleased to support this worthwhile endeavor," said Jennifer Woods, director of alumni affairs and special programs and coordinator of La Roche's volunteer efforts for the day. "It shows that the La Roche community cares about its neighbors."
The La Roche volunteers joined nearly 4,000 other volunteers from more than 100 local companies, who spent the day tackling various tasks at nonprofit agencies and other organizations in the Pittsburgh area.
