Chicago Project — 2001:

Work Day at Deborah’s Place

Deborah's Place, a private not-for-profit corporation, serves women in Chicago who are homeless or formerly homeless. Dedicated volunteers and staff provide food, shelter and supportive services so that women can become empowered to take back and maintain control over their lives. Chicago-area Wooster alumni helped with needed work at the shelter facility. This included painting in several areas of the shelter; performing weatherization work such as removing Air Conditioning units from the windows and sealing open areas; and performing Fall landscaping at the facility.
