Living in the neighborhoods of the poor, tutoring in schools, visiting the elderly, serving in soup kitchens, etc. give students the experience in which to reflect upon. Taking our focus from our Vincentian spirituality, and from the Mission Statement of the University, we strive to reach out to those who are in need, especially those that are marginalized of society. Past programs have taken students to places such as Brooklyn, Detroit, West Virginia, and Panama, for an experience of third world poverty. Students are encouraged to sign-up early for this program, as it is extremely popular. This may vary from location to location.
Groups also fund raise to help defray their costs.
