We invite you to join the St. John's community to make the next “40 days” your time to reflect and rekindle the flame of your purpose, and to bring peace to one another.
Join us on a spiritual 40-day journey to reinvigorate relationships with one another, and assist the most vulnerable in-need students and those in our community who face very difficult life circumstances. Let your $1/day for the next 40 days be the difference you make in someone else's life.
Your $1/Day for 40 days will support some of our most inspiring campus programs – assisting these students with housing, food, and raising awareness in advocacy of others. Our goal over the next 40 days is to raise $4,444!
Some of the programs you will be supporting:
Midnight Run is a challenging experience where students have a “hands-on” encounter with the homeless of Manhattan. During a run, students gather to make bagged meals for the night. The meals are then distributed, along with clothes and toiletries, to those in need.
St. Vincent de Paul (SVdP) Society is a student run organization directed toward short and long-term service opportunities in service to the poor. SVdP Society brings students together who share a common experience of service and prayer as an integral part of our Vincentian education. Through community-based opportunities for service, monthly meetings and times of reflection and fellowship, members are afforded many ways to engage and serve our community.
CRS Student Ambassadors work to spread the mission of Catholic Relief Services to our University community. The CRS Ambassadors engage students in programs, activities and advocacy efforts centered on social justice issues, thus creating opportunities to join in solidarity with the global poor.
University Mission Food Insecurity Fund provides food and other resources to our most vulnerable in-need students.
