5 Reasons Why We Do Community Service

  1. It is a valuable way to learn. If students plan the projects, assess the projects and write reflections, it becomes an authentic, hands-on learning experience
  2. It broadens worldviews. Students learn more about the world around them and they change some of the negative stereotypes of America's youth.
  3. It helps students grows as people. By helping others out, students have a higher sense of self-respect and self-efficacy.
  4. Employers value community service. Employers want quality, ethical people. Community service helps with this.
  5. It can help students earn scholarships in the long run.
