There are lots of opportunities to do some good in the community. At the last Student Senate meeting we learned about some ways Moraine Park students can help others in our community.
One of our guests at the meeting was a representative of Family Promise of Washington County, an organization that provides resources and services to homeless families. In October they would like MPTC’s West Bend campus to host Cardboard Box City. It’s a fundraising event where people can participate in activities during the day and spend the night in cardboard boxes.
Another guest speaker was from Citizen Advocacy of Washington County, an organization that “creates and supports one-on-one relationships between volunteer advocates and people with developmental disabilities.” MPTC students can get involved by volunteering their time to hang out with young adults and have a good time.
On April 26, which is during Earth Week, the Student Senate will be organizing a Campus Clean-up day. Between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. we’ll be roaming around the perimeter of the building making sure our campus is clean. There will be free lunch vouchers for those who help. Meet us in room T-101. Let’s hope for great weather that day!
