What is Service LEarning?To inspire, equip, and mobilize youth to take action that changes the world and themselves through service. SERVICE LEARNING connects school-based curriculum with the inherent caring and concern students have for their world - whether on the school campus, at a local food bank, or in a distant global community. The results are memorable, lifelong lessons for students and foster a stronger society for us all.
