About this Event
Overview
Join the Windy City Gators for Gator Day of Service in Chicago — an opportunity to come together, give back, and make a meaningful impact in our local community.
This year, we’ll be volunteering with Cradles to Crayons at their Giving Factory, supporting their mission to provide essential items to children in need across Chicagoland. This hands-on experience allows you to see the direct impact of your time and effort.
What to Expect
Work alongside fellow Gators as you sort, inspect, and package donations for local children. The shift includes a brief orientation and concludes with a group wrap-up sharing the collective impact of your work.
What to Wear
Closed-toe shoes and comfortable, layered clothing you don’t mind getting a little dirty.
