Not only have I painted banners for Peace Concerts (where I also served as event management security) and chairs at a Senior Network for the CareTeam. I have also become a veritable font of Chicago, Olympic and geographical trivia for our Dignity Diner. Much time was spent in the hunt for a portable bingo system, with great success! Other CareTeam events have included expertise in crafting coffee filter flowers at the DuSable Museum of African-American History' Family Day.
For another program, Team M3, I have colored arrows to guide runners on the Lake Front Running Path. Along with over 150 high schools students from nine CPS high schools and nearly 100 mentors, I have begun training for the Chicago Marathon. There really is nothing quite like seeing 150 students up, excited and motivated to run at 7AM on a Saturday morning.

Sarah H. serves the MGR Foundation through an internship program with the DePaul University - Steans Center for Service Learning. She is currently serving the MGR Foundation full-time and we are incredibly thankful for her exceptional service and committment to our organization and the patrons we serve.
