Area non-profits, businesses provide service opportunities for Mount community

Mount Saint Mary College’s recent Community Impact Fair brought together two dozen non-profits and businesses, offering a wide array of opportunities to serve the local community.

The fair, spearheaded by the college’s Desmond Center for Community Engagement and Wellness (DCCEW), connected students, faculty, and staff with the local organizations to forge meaningful, service-based partnerships.

“We believe in the power of collaboration,” said Ashley Collazo, acting director of the Desmond Center. “We’re excited by the connections made and the potential for positive impact in our community.” 

The Desmond Center provides wellness and educational services for underserved individuals and families, including the uninsured.
