Pope Francis Center Volunteer Opportunities 2024

Hosted by Mercy Dads' Club

We are coordinating with the Pope Francis Center in Detroit to create some service events. These approved opportunities are open to all Mercy students accompanied by a parent/guardian. They are looking for 8 people to help out each Saturday, so this will be four sets of parents/daughters. Two sets will help with food service and two sets will help with sorting and organizing donations.

The service dates are February 3rd, February 10th and March 9th at the Pope Francis Center from 6:45am to 11:15am. There is free parking right behind the Center in the University of Detroit Law School parking lot. The names of all volunteers will be reported to Mrs. Bennetts to ensure student service hours are properly recorded.

Sign-up to volunteer at Pope Francis Center here.

From the Pope Francis Center website: Faithful volunteers are the heartbeat of our work at the Pope Francis Center.We are blessed with individuals and groups who recognize that wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness…and we can always use more helping hands. Learn more about the Pope Francis Center here.

A parking and facility map will be sent to all families who sign-up. Contact Mark Lebednick at 248-722-1313 if you have any questions.
