Dear Penn Community,
Your generosity last year during the holiday season made a huge difference in the lives of many members of our community. We look forward to working with you again this year as we strive to make a difference in the lives of our many deserving neighbors.
Below is a list of current volunteer opportunities. These opportunities are special in that they are designed to bring joy during the holidays. I look forward to working with you as we strive to be good neighbors. Contact me at (215) 898-2020 or send an email: sammapp@pobox.upenn.edu for additional information and/or to make a donation. Thank you for all you do.
—Isabel Mapp, Associate Director, Netter Center for Community Partnerships
Holiday Food Drive: November 1–14
Let's take a bite out of hunger! In the season of thanks and giving, please contribute to the Annual Food Drive at the University coordinated by Penn Volunteers in Public Service (Penn VIPS). We are collecting non-perishable foods (cans and boxed foods) as well as turkeys.
Donations will restock the pantry at Baring House and the People's Emergency Shelter as well as help many deserving families in the area.

Winter Coat Drive: November 1—December 14
Does your gently used winter coat still have some serviceable miles on it?
Penn Volunteers in Public Service is organizing a Winter Coat Drive. Warm coats in good condition, for both children and adults, are needed by a number of charitable organizations in the Philadelphia area.
If you have a coat (or coats) to contribute to the Penn VIPS drive, you are welcome to donate them at either of the locations listed below:
Human Resources |
538A 3401 Walnut Street |
Syreeta Gary |
(215) 898-6018 |
Netter Center |

Isabel Mapp |

We do not have the facilities or funds to clean donated items. Freshly laundered (or recently cleaned) items are especially appreciated.
Bring in your gently used coats to be donated to area shelters.
