CIVIC VOLUNTEERS REGISTERED

Through the Committee on Civic and Social Work of the Harvard Club of New York City, a registry is being made of graduates and undergraduates of the University living in and near New York who are available for voluntary civil and social work of every kind in and about New York City. It is the object of the Club to provide in this way, within the field of voluntary activity, facilities analogous to those offered by the Appointments Committee within the field of paid employment. The office facilities of the Harvard Club are used as a convenient means of recording available men, and applications and attending to inquiries concerning the work.

The work available includes positions in civic and political organizations as well as social and charitable organizations and includes every branch of activity in which the social service worker might be engaged. The Committee is especially desirous of serving Harvard men who are newly arrived in New York, including those who are especially qualified through their connection with the Phillips Brooks House Association.

A circular with a blank form for names, addresses, and special aptitudes or interests of applicants will eventually be sent to all members of the Club. Owing to the urgent demands for service connected with the war, and the multiplicity of notices and appeals having to do with that service, it has been thought best to defer for the present any active solicitation in the interest of other forms of civic and social work. In the meantime the canvass of social and charitable organizations will be completed. All inquiries regarding existing openings for voluntary work should be addressed to the Secretary of the Committee on Civic and Social Work, Harvard Club, New York City.
