Community Outreach Day
October 28, 2000
More than 50 Saint Mary’s University alumni shared their time and talents with needy
residents of the Twin Cities in the second SMU Community Outreach Day, Oct. 28. The
alumni group met at the Twin Cities Campus on Park Avenue, and then divided to lend a
hand to service agencies across the metro area. Targeted organizations included Habitat
for Humanity, Project for Pride and Living, Ascension House, and Families Moving
Forward, all in Minneapolis, and Salvation Army, Merrick Community Services, and the
Catholic Charities furniture warehouse and ramps program, all in St. Paul.
Community Outreach Day was coordinated by Ben Murray ’96, Angela Dreis ’82, and
Melissa Selders-Ortiz, director of admission at the Twin Cities Campus, along with
Rebecca Satka ’75, SMU’s assistant vice president for alumni relations.
Jeanne Hartle ’77 and Carey Eiselt volunteered with other
alumni and friends in the Twin Cities area as part of
SMU’s Twin Cities Outreach Day, sponsored by the Twin
Cities Alumni Chapter.
