Bloomingdale’s Honors MLK Day with Service at La Salle
This year, Bloomingdale’s chose La Salle as one of their partner sites for their annual MLK Day of Service. Nearly 30 of Bloomingdale’s Corporate Staff spent the day doing service with 10 of our students at La Salle Academy, painting and cleaning in both the school building and La Salle’s Annex building on 2nd Street. These eager volunteers got to work in the morning, cleaning and painting the locker rooms. The group also cleaned out the basement of the Annex building, a job that was a long time coming. They filled up two giant dumpsters with thirty years of garbage. The day was a chance for some of our students to see what it means to serve and work hard. La Salle was blessed to be selected as one of their partners for the day – their staff was superb and hard-working.
