The vigil will begin at 5:15 p.m., and all members of the Syracuse University, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and greater Syracuse communities are invited and encouraged to participate. Free parking will be available in the Irving Garage.

Checks may be made payable to Hendricks Chapel, and donors should clearly designate on the memo line that the donation is for the “SU Tsunami Disaster Relief Fund.” All funds collected will go to the Red Cross to aid victims of the tsunami disaster in affected areas.
