Serving Others: Paying It Forward
Our participants don’t just receive, they give. In 2024, students logged over 2,880 community service hours, helping at children’s homes and facilities for disabled adults. They cooked meals, tended gardens, played with children, and simply showed up with compassion. For many, this was the first time they saw themselves as givers, not just receivers.
The Ripple Effect
When one student is transformed, entire communities feel the difference:
​
-
Families reunite.
-
Classrooms gain first-generation college students.
-
Churches and communities receive servant-hearted leaders.
-
Vulnerable children see role models who once walked their path.
