Community Service Initiative

The service component of this year’s John Carroll Weekend will support St. Anthony Dining Room, which is one of the Bay Area’s largest community meal programs. The Dining Room has served poor and homeless Tenderloin residents since 1950 and currently serves nearly a million hot, nutritious meals each year, welcoming each guest with dignity and respect.

John Carroll Weekend attendees are invited to donate an hour or two of their weekend to serve lunch at the Dining Room. The facility is within walking distance of the hotel or a short cab ride away. When registering for John Carroll Weekend, participants will have the option to select specific times to volunteer at the Dining Room. No advance training is necessary.
