On Saturday, May 20, Ebony Bobcat Network-Cincinnati/Dayton Alumni will assist Lighthouse Youth and Family Services in organizing their warehouse where young adults can "shop" for essential items so they can live independently. As a part of the Day of Service, we will tour the facility so we can better understand the impact of our work. Leading up to the Day of Service, we will will collect essential items for Lighthouse Youth and Family Services.

Please see below the schedule and opportunities to serve during Ohio University's Beautification Day on Saturday, May 20. Our service day will follow the annual fundraising event, and it is expected we will have a lot to organize and this will be very helpful for the Lighthouse and the young adults they support.
