Keck Medicine of USC employees continued a tradition of volunteerism recently as more than a dozen staff members spent time preparing and serving food to patrons of the Proyecto Pastoral Dolores Mission.

Proyecto Pastoral is a local nonprofit organization that was established to improve the quality of life in the Boyle Heights neighborhood.  Proyecto Pastoral is associated with the Dolores Mission, which offers an elderly women’s shelter and adult men’s shelter. Various organizations volunteer to prepare and serve dinner to this vulnerable population.

Volunteer at the Proyecto Pastoral Dolores Mission on February 28th at 3:30 p.m. to cook and serve food for the needy. To sign up, contact Lusine.Davtyan@med.usc.edu.
