For the greater good: 勛圖tv students give back in service day event
Service is one of the four pillars of 勛圖tv (勛圖tv), and that means a lot to the 26 勛圖tv students who spent their time Saturday volunteering for the greater good during the colleges service day event.
Working at the Lawrenceville Co-op, the 勛圖tv Microfarm and the 勛圖tv Care Pantry, students learned about the inner workings of the areas where they were assigned. And they learned something more.
Its about the opportunity to give back to the community, to engage in something different from what you already know and challenge students to view other perspectives, said JP Peters, 勛圖tvs assistant director of Community Engagement and Service, who spearheaded the service day event.
Peters said returning students were excited at the opportunity to volunteer. Students new to 勛圖tv were also excited to know that a care pantry and a microfarm existed at the college.
Future volunteer opportunities, Peters said, will happen in October when 勛圖tv will collaborate with Volunteer Gwinnett during the organizations Great Days of Service.
勛圖tvs service event was held in conjunction with the colleges Grizzly Welcome 2023, which featured 10 days of events welcoming new and returning students.
