Midnight Run

The Rotaract Club at Dominican University organizes a few Midnight Runs each year. This is where a group of students spend the evening making sandwiches, filling ziplock bags with cookies, and packing them in bags with fresh fruit, a drink, and a dessert.  Once they finish- they will fill up a Dominican University van and then make the trip to NYC, where they will deliver essentials such as clothes, toiletries, and a bagged meal to homeless men and women living on the streets or in shelters.

Students are encouraged to volunteer to bring hope, dignity, and compassion to those who are often overlooked or forgotten. Please sign up here: Students: Midnight Run Sign Up

You can also help by donating essentials such as non-perishable food items, toiletries, or other items.
Please email Ashley Rojas to organize.
