What is DP DAY?
Detroit Partnership (DP) day is a community service event were students from the university will head down to Detroit to participate in service events around the city, in an effort to better themselves and the Detroit community. Service events consist of demolition, construction, landscaping, gardening, and painting at elementary school, high schools, churches, parks, fields, and neighborhoods in Detroit.
What will the day be like?
First, you go to the Union to check in. From there, you walk to the coliseum parking lot for breakfast and some entertainment, and where you will meet your site leaders. From there, you load onto the bus, and head to Detroit. Once at your site, your site leader will inform you of the specific tasks to be completed. For the next few hours, you and the fellow volunteers work at the site. In the afternoon, lunch will be dropped off at your site. After lunch, you will continue to work until 2:30. When all the volunteers will meet at our a park in Detroit, were we have a post-DP-Day rally planned, where we will have some special speakers, entertainers, and more snacks and beverages. Afterwards, you will board the busses and head back to Ann Arbor. One can expect to return to Ann Arbor around 4:30 pm.
Before signing up, please make sure you will be free on April 3rd, noting any religious obligations. Thank you for signing up, and we look forward to working with you to help give back to the Detroit community.
