❤ Volunteers Needed! Resource Distribution Day June 4 💙

As many of you know, UCSD families impacted by the recent fire at the Cross Creek Apartments are continuing to rebuild after losing so much. We have been amazed by the kindness and generosity of our community, and many people have asked how they can help.

We’re currently organizing volunteer support for June 4, 2026, as a resource distribution day. Our community has partnered with the FreeStore, Urbandale Community Action Network (UCAN), Rotary Club of Northwest Des Moines, Kirby's Moving Company, and the Urbandale Food Pantry to secure needed furniture and household items. Now we need your help to get these great resources to our families.

✅If you are willing to help, please complete this volunteer interest form to indicate the ways you may be able to contribute: https://forms.gle/HVuhanRcCrEjvX2z9

There is no obligation, and filling out the form simply helps us match community members with needs as they arise. Thank you for continuing to show compassion and support for our students and families during this difficult time. Your kindness is making a meaningful difference! ❤💙
