ways to get involved
First Tuesday Meals On Wheels Drivers Needed
We are looking for drivers to deliver meals to homes in Edina during the lunch hour on the first Tuesday of every month. The whole process takes about 90 minutes and helps ensure that members of our community have at least one hot meal a day. If you are interested, please contact Liz Zung or Pat Wellnitz at 952-939-4175.
Coban Connection Water Project
Over the past 10 years, St. Patrick's has developed a relationship with Resurrection Priory in Coban, Guatemala and the people in neighboring villages. The message the people gave us was: Help us get clean water. So the Coban Connection Water Project was started.
A new Coban Water Project website was created for this project over the summer by one of our own college students. Click here for a printable form explaining how you can provide a family with clean water for only $50!
Contact the Social Justice office for more information.
Watch the special Coban Water Project presentation shown at the annual Evening for Brighter Tomorrows (EBT) Fundraiser.
