Students on a Winter Break Service Trip to Dallas, Texas
Service Trips provide an incredible opportunity for students to gain leadership experience while volunteering alongside domestic and international communities. The trips immerse students, faculty and staff in communities to empower them to help meet community needs without imposing ideas on others. Before, during and after a service trip, students engage in intentional reflection and education to clarify values, seek connection to academic work and enhance their identities as engaged citizens. Whether it means sharing about the community, increased confidence or a desire to volunteer once back in Carlisle, our goal is to foster experiences that allow participants to bring what they learned back to the Dickinson community.
