It's National Volunteer Week and the EWMBA Community Service Committee has lined up two exciting events. Reach Beyond Yourself and take part in the HAAS Community Weekend!
**Both events are kiddo friendly! Bring your families!**
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SATURDAY
HAAS Community Weekend - Hemophilia 5K Walk!
Hemophilia is a genetic bleeding disorder that prevents the blood from clotting normally. The main symptom is uncontrolled, often spontaneous bleeding. Internal bleeding into the muscles and joints can result in pain, swelling and, if left untreated, can cause permanent damage.
We will have teams representing the FTMBA, EWMBA, and Alumni. The Cesar Chavez Park is a hidden gem in Berkeley. Bring your kids and walk along the shoreline overlooking the Golden Gate bridge. Support us by joining a team or donating to us!
When: 4/17/2010 @ 9:00 AM
Location: Cesar Chavez Park in Berkeley

SUNDAY
Haas Community Weekend - Urban Sprouts!
Join your fellow Haas MBA students while helping SF kids learn about healthy eating! We'll work on a school garden helping build a compost area, worm bin, and new garden bed. Make sure to wear long pants and closed toed shoes. They will have all the tools and supplies that you will need but bring your own water bottles! If you have gardening gloves, bring those as well.
Afterward we'll treat you to lunch nearby!
When: 4/18/2010 @ 9:00 AM
Location: Urban Sprouts at Martin Luther King Academy - 350 Girard St. in San Francisco
