"The Fairfield County Alumni Group's Day of Service at the St. Francis of Assisi Carnival was a tremendous success! Our Villanova family and friends came together to run carnival booths, greet attendees, and enjoy great conversations, all while volunteering for a wonderful cause!"

Thanks to all and friends who volunteered their time this weekend to provide helping hands at the St. Paul’s Food Cupboard in Valley Cottage, NY. Members from our regional club helped sort and pack grocery bags for over 150 families on Friday afternoon and then had the privilege of being part of the distribution process on Saturday morning. The food cupboard provides this much-needed service every other week and is always looking for volunteers.

Perfect weather set the stage for a successful community garden clean up at Catholic Charities in Haverstraw, NY on Saturday morning. The garden supplies fresh produce to approximately 500 families every month during the season and our volunteer work helped prep the soil for next year. Thanks to all who volunteered their time!

Cocktails and Conversation at Winged Foot Golf Club, a favorite Fairfield/Rockland/Westchester alumni event, delivered on an incredible evening! Thank you to our keynote speaker, Denise Dillon ’96 CLAS, Women’s Basketball Head Coach. Sharing her deep love for basketball that began as a NOVA player and her transition to head coach highlighted key moments in her career. Her vision for the upcoming season and Villanona's goals of building a cohesive team culture to foster individual player growth and team excellence were inspiring.

The evening was filled with endless opportunities to connect/reconnect in a beautiful venue with excellent food and engaged alumni who captured the Villanova spirit of community. Check the calendar section of our page for opportunities to get involved and stay connected. See you at the next event!

Make an impact through St. Thomas of Villanova Day of Service events in Rockland County. This year we have multiple opportunities for Villanovans to get together and help address food insecurity right here in our community. Rockland County has one of the highest percentages of food insecurity in NY state outside of NYC and we are looking forward to supporting two organizations that are making an impact. Please join us for one or all of the events listed below:

Saturday, September 21st | 9am-1pm
We will help Catholic Charities of Rockland close down their community garden for the season. Be prepared to get dirty as we salvage any remaining crops and prepare the ground to ensure a bumper crop next year. The “Garden of Love” is a vital source of fresh produce for the accompanying food pantry that serves 500+ clients each month.

Friday, October 4th | 3pm-5pm
We will help the food cupboard at St. Paul’s sort grocery items, restock shelves and pack bags that will be distributed the next morning.

Saturday, October 5th | 7:30am-9am. We will help distribute bags to the many food insecure families and individuals who line up on Saturday mornings and appreciate the groceries so much.
