Brebeuf Jesuit’s Community Service Program is a 30-hour requirement that is begun and completed within the course of one of the four semesters of the student’s junior or senior year. Through Community Service, students have an opportunity to learn about others and to learn about themselves in the context of serving those in the community who have special needs. Service is an opportunity to …
· Discover new friends in exciting and challenging situations.
· Experience the joy of giving oneself for the benefit of others.
· Grow from the challenges encountered in service to others.
· Love beyond one’s family and friends.
· Be loved and affirmed in return.
Community service sites include clinics, hospitals, schools, youth centers, service centers and homes for the physically and developmentally disabled, retirement facilities, therapeutic riding and youth sports programs, nursing home, and homes for unwed mothers. By the end of any semester, Brebeuf Jesuit students will have give more than 900 hours of service to the community.
