Xavier's 2013 Community Service Day will truly be a “community” Xavier students will be working throughout Cedar Rapids, Marion, and Hiawatha on a variety of service opportunities. Freshmen, Sophomores and Seniors will be going to homes to assist elderly or disabled homeowners with regular fall chores such as raking leaves and cleaning windows. Over 200 homeowners (clients of Aging Services) will be assisted throughout the day on Wednesday. The Junior Class will be working with Habitat for Humanity, ReStore, Prairie Woods Retreat House, Catholic Worker House, Metro Catholic Food Pantry and several parishes. The students will be cleaning and organizing inside buildings as well as working with outdoor cleanup. At the parishes, students will perform regular maintenance jobs in those churches.
