Please join us on campus for the third annual Sweet Work Weeks between July 31 and August 18!
We are looking forward to welcoming home alumnae and friends from all
over the country who want to help with projects for the beautification,
maintenance, and administrative functions at Sweet Briar. You can
come for any amount of time you have to share - hours, days, or even
weeks!
President Meredith Woo has made residence hall improvement for our
students a special initiative and top priority for this summer. The
College has started refreshing the residences with new flooring, and
President Woo has asked faculty and staff to join alumnae and other
volunteers during Sweet Work Weeks to help paint the six residences that
students will use during the upcoming year. We are very excited
that this joint volunteer effort will put into practice President Woo’s
principle of "One Sweet Briar," everyone working together to
support the shared goal of advancing the College.
The residence hall painting blitz will take place between July 31 and
August 10. If you are not a fan of that fresh-paint smell, we would
appreciate your help with a variety of other indoor and outdoor projects
which have been identified around campus.
When you volunteer for Sweet Work Weeks, you get to put your hands to
work giving back to the College you love, get to know some amazing alumnae
and other volunteers, stay in the residence halls, and enjoy your
down-time in the incomparable beauty of Sweet Briar’s campus.
Please sign up here to join us during Sweet Work
Weeks and know that you will be making a meaningful and appreciated
contribution to the entire Sweet Briar community.
With gratitude,
Priscilla Newton Carroll '87
Director of Alumnae Relations
