Students from the Center for Service and Social Justice work with elementary and high school children in a variety of placements. Many of these students work in the same communities where they grew up, and others have unselfishly given of themselves, breaking barriers and reaching out to those in need.
Center for Service and Social Justice Placement Programs:
- Allentown Central Catholic High School
DSU students are at Central Catholic every Monday and Wednesday from 3-4 p.m. during the academic year. This program is usually for 9th and 10th graders at Central and is focused on students who may not be excelling in some of their course work.
- Boy and Girls Club of South Bethlehem
DSU students may volunteer Tuesday through Thursday from 4-5 p.m. at the Boys & Girls Club. Students may help in tutoring students from the ages of 6-13 and participate in other programs such as arts and crafts, sports and computer classes.
- South Mountain Middle School
DSU students can volunteer on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:15-4:30 p.m. DSU students will be participating in homework help and planning projects to make science fun, such as egg drops and building mini hot air balloons.
All DSU students are welcome to participate in any and all tutoring programs. Transportation is provided for all programs and departs from the McShea parking lot. If you have any questions please contact, jaime.gerhart@desales.edu or stop by the McShea Service Lounge. |
