Throughout the year, DPS initiates or participates in a number of community service projects. Typically, we partner with local organizations that work with the Providence community. Past projects have included Toys for Tots, Veteran Coat Drives, Book drives, Career Day, Trunk or Treat, International Basketball Tournament, and Summer Friday Readings. We have partnered with the YMCA, Fox Point- Boys and Girls Club, and Sojourner House.
We also engage in community activities led by other departments at Brown, such as the Brown Gives fundraising campaign for United Way and Athletics' Bench Press for Cancer.
