DFL Week of Service

DFL Week of Service

(August 8^th to 13^th)

About the Week of Service

During his inaugural address in January Governor Dayton asked all Minnesotans to dedicate a small portion of their time to volunteer work in their local communities. As part of our response to that call, the DFL has launched a new initiative, the DFL Week of Service, that we hope will become an annual activity for the DFL to celebrate our values. As part of the Week of Service the DFL will be sponsoring events in every congressional district at various points during the week with the intent of engaging our members, volunteers, and activists in community service around the state.

**Fourth Congressional District Event **

As part of the Week of Service festivities in CD 4, the DFL is excited to partner with Habitat for Humanity's A Brush of Kindness program, which seeks to restore and maintain decent places to live for low income families in the metro area. In order to make this event a success we will require a large number of volunteers. If you can, please come volunteer with us and help spread the word! This event is not limited exclusively to DFLers, non-political friends and family are more than welcome.
