The drive, which began on January 18 and runs through January 31, delivers Valentine’s Day cards to homebound seniors in NYC. MV4NY also partners with City Meals on Wheels (CMOW) to deliver a nourishing meal along with the cards.

This is an annual drive in which all Dalton students participate. Asad and his classmates enjoyed decorating and designing handmade Valentine's Day Cards for the seniors. The cards will be collected by the Office of Community and Global Partnerships and delivered to MV4NY in early February.

MV4NY is a community-based organization engaged in charitable and volunteer-based initiatives in the Greater New York area. They are dedicated to reducing food insecurity and hunger across NYC. MV4NY helps struggling and at-risk families through various initiatives, including food drives and donations, clothing and product drives, and volunteering events. 

On being selected as the Ambassador, Asad says that he “is excited for this opportunity to help a great cause!” Thank you to all Dalton community members who participated. For more information, contact Carrie Chung and Ilia Castro in the service learning office.
