Our Signature Service Events are opportunities to engage in service with large numbers of peers for on a one-time basis.  Participate individually to meet new people, serve with your friends, or strengthen a group or team!

We realize the limits of what we can achieve in one day.  Our hope is that all event participants will understand challenges facing DC and will take advantage of our other ongoing service opportunities to make a deeper impact.

We also are always looking for leaders.  As events approach, be on the lookout for opportunities to apply to lead, or sign up for the trip.  Click here to keep posted!
