Following the guidance of national, state, and local health authorities, we have taken important steps to safeguard our WACU community., while actively doing our part to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
We have also made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone all WACU in-person events until the Stay at home, Stay safe order is lifted, and will continue to provide updates across WACU communication channels such as our website and social media.

September 12 @9am-4pm at the Ann Arbor VFW post 423-3230 S Wagner Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48103
As part of our mission to connect with Veterans and their families during these difficult times, we are working with veteran organization in the south region of Michigan and Operation Gratitude to assemble and deliver 1,000 care packages to give to Veterans and their Families in Monroe, Livingston, Lenawee, Washtenaw counties and surrounding areas. Our goal is to deliver all 1,000 care packages by Veterans Day 2020. This event will take place outside under a large tent to provide social distancing and gathering requirements, PPE and hand sanitizer will be provided to those that may need it. We have included an online sign up sheet with specific time slots for volunteers to sign up at to limit the amount of people working at one time. There will be a lunch break from 12-1 (food will be provided) that will allow volunteers to make a natural shift. Any organizations that would like to request their own sign up for volunteers please email and I will create one for you!
