BOND serves at Sandwich Making

The Le Moyne College organization B.O.N.D (Brothers Of New Direction) teamed up with the LMC Sandwich makers last evening to make 108 sandwiches for the needy of Syracuse. It was a great opportunity for the two groups to come together, learn about each others club, and do a service project in the Dolphin Den. The energy and enthusiasm of the B.O.N.D members was fantastic and they really enjoyed helping. Altogether there were over 30 volunteers who came out to make and support the effort. This is a testament to the caring attitude of Le Moyne students who often rise to the occasion to collaborate and support a noble cause. The Jesuit ideals of Le Moyne are clearly visible when it comes to student groups making a difference on campus and within the Syracuse community. A special thanks to the B.O.N.D members and all of our volunteers for continuing to make LMC Sandwich makers a success week after week.

Another Year of LMC Sandwich Makers

Thanks to the generous dedication of our volunteers and coordinator Anil Da Costa we are up and running again this semester, having made 175 sandwiches in two sessions. This marks yet another year of the LMC Sandwich makers, now under the umbrella of Ignatian Ignite! We are happy and proud to be servicing the Samaritan Center Soup Kitchen in Syracuse for a fourth year with our bag lunch program. So far we have had a decent turn out with our new schedule of Monday and Thursday evenings at 9pm in the Dolphin Den. All are welcome to come and join in to serve our brothers and sisters through sandwich making. Keep up the good work gang and "sandwich" on!
