Easter Season

Rice bowls are a way to donate to Catholic Relief Services to help vulnerable people around the world and put your faith into action. If you picked up a Catholic Relief Services rice bowl in the commons during Lent, please bring it back the week after Easter to help support people in need around the world and give it to campus minister Tim Higgins. Want to make an online donation instead? Click here to give online as part of Team Sheil as we strive to raise $500 to help others this Lenten season.  To learn more about the rice bowl, click here.
