My Service Learning

I enrolled on English 98 this quarter. And one of the requirements to be able to pass this course is to engage in Service Learning. It is a combination of community service, and academic learning, with a reflection to oneself.

Mrs. Sharon Stultz, the Program Manager of Service Learning, gave us an Orientation about this activity, it's meaning, it's purpose, and what to expect. She gave us a list of Service Learning Site options on which it's up to us to decide which suits us best, and which fits our schedules.

My chosen Service Learning is called "Campus Kitchen Project" - Street Outreach.
This is one of the many programs of Center for Service-Learning at Everett Community College.

On this program, students assist with the preparation and serving of meals to the needy in our community. We all meet on College Campus every Saturday at 10am to prepare 40 lunches, beverages, and a variety of basic needs supplies for Street Outreach. Then we walk around several areas all over the city to hand out food, and interact with people who spend their time on the streets. We serve the homeless, disabled, youth, and families with young children
