The Daily Bulletin

Hosted by the Dr. Katherine S. Conway-Turner Office of Civic and Community Engagement, in collaboration with Powerful United Ladies Striving to Elevate (P.U.L.S.E.) and Black Active Minds (B.A.M), join us on Saturday, April 26, for Spring Clean-Up Service Day 2025, a rewarding day of service as we support local organizations committed to advancing food security, sustainability, and educational access.

Spring Clean-Up Service Day will partner with three impactful community sites:

• Site 1 – Friends of the Lake Erie Seaway Trail Center: Beach front garbage pickup and property clean up
• Site 2 – FeedMore WNY: Garden bed preparation and outdoor maintenance
• Site 3 – Say Yes Buffalo Summer Campsite: Preparing the community center for summer programming

This hands-on service project offers participants an opportunity to contribute directly to the local community while learning about the mission and work of each partner organization.

Participants will choose one site and are expected to commit to the full four-hour service experience. Transportation will be provided. If you plan to drive yourself, please indicate that on the registration form and ensure you arrive on time and remain for the full duration. Please clearly indicate your site preference and transportation needs on the registration form so we can coordinate accordingly.

The day will include:

• An introductory presentation by your community partner site
• Four hours of meaningful service work
• A complimentary boxed lunch
• A group reflection activity
• Civic engagement credit (four hours)
