A Day To Make A Difference

Wellesley College's rich tradition of service and citizenship is embodied in the College motto, Non Ministrari Sed Ministrare, and in its mission to educate women who will make a difference in the world. Over the past eight years, A Day To Make A Difference - a project that celebrates Wellesley's legacy by designating a day for alumnae to undertake service projects in their areas - has been an overwhelming success.

We are delighted to announce that the Alumnae Association and Center for Work and Service have decided to continue this initiative in the coming year. We invite you to join us for A Day To Make A Difference on September 6 or 7, 2008 by volunteering in projects hosted by alumnae clubs or other groups of Wellesley alumnae. You may choose to serve with family members and friends, or individually. Our hope is that Wellesley women will work in partnership with not-for-profits or other service organizations throughout the world to give back to their communities to make a difference in the world.

To reserve a space in a Boston service project, please return the registration form by Monday, August 25, to Melissa Hawkins at mhawkins@wellesley.edu with your request.
We look forward to sharing this special event with all of you!
