Groups and individuals who would like to participate in SWV activites are always welcome. There are usually a number of different activites available, naturally it will depend to some extend on the status of current renovation projects.

During visits by volunteers, we share the story of our organization and how our efforts fit into the opportunities and needs of the neighborhood. When possible, volunteers can tour the Hollins Market and Union Square neighborhoods and learn about the unique history of the area.

Volunteer groups can be scheduled for varying amounts of time, usually on a Saturday morning or several consecutive days. Please contact Sr. Katherine Nueslein at 410-547-8584 to check availability of volunteer activities and to schedule your group.
