Marywood University’s campus ministry office will host its fourth annual “Snowball Roll” fundraiser, to benefit the alternative break service trip program, on Thursday, February 6, 2020, at 1 p.m., at University Avenue, on the University’s campus. This fundraiser is open to the public.
Participants can purchase “Snowballs” for $2 for a chance to win. Nearly 2,000 numbered balls will be rolled down University Avenue. The first 50 balls to cross the finish line will win prizes, which include cash, Apple Air Pods, themed baskets, and gift cards to numerous local restaurants and stores.
This year, Marywood students will travel to McAllen, Texas; Tucson, Arizona; Grundy County, Tennessee; Montego Bay, Jamaica; San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala; and San Lucas and Chichicastenango, Guatemala. The services offered include working on infrastructure, conducting medical missions, serving those who are experiencing poverty and homelessness, and assisting young adults with physical and developmental disabilities.
To purchase “Snowballs,” please visit alternativebreak@m.marywood.edu, or purchase directly in the office of campus ministry. Participants do not need to be present to win. For additional information, please contact Ann H. O’Brien, L.S.W., assistant director for service learning and community service, at (570) 961-4593, or email aobrien@marywood.edu.
