Reach To Romania is an Outreach Project open to Notre Dame alumnae and faculty. We are currently referring those interested to Global Volunteers. They work with at risk infants in hospitals and older orphans in schools and group homes and will try to place NDP alums and faculty on the same team.

Please regularly check in with this link to see what is currently happening and if there is anything that you can do to help. As of FEBRUARY 9, 2006, there is an URGENT ACTION request to contact your Senators and Congressional Representatives. ________________________________________________________________________________
