Soup Kitchen Excursion

As part of an effort to get more involved in the community in our immediate area, we will be taking a trip to the local soup kitchen, just minutes away from Next House and Simmons Hall.

Card Making Drive for Boston Children's Hospital

Spring 2006 Semester

Project Heartsafe

In coordination with MIT EMS, we hope to raise money to install at least one defibrillator in a prominent location on the MIT campus. They have also solicited our help in organizing CRP training classes for members of the community.
