Service-Learning Project Ideas for Advisories:
- Pennies for Peace - http://www.penniesforpeace.org/
- There is an overview, a provided curriculum, and listed ties to service-learning on this website.
- Military Backpacks/Donations - http://www.operationfirstresponse.org/
- This website offers an outline of what to collect to send to wounded soldiers (we would possibly also need to collect money to cover shipping). To tie to service-learning, you could have students advocate for more resources for soldiers and/or have students write letters of support to the soldiers. Note: There are several organizations that are similar to this one, so feel free to explore!
- As a related project, check out: http://operationgoodybag.org/. This organization provides support and appreciation for those lost on 9/11 and also support our current military men and women.
- Salvation Army Donations - http://www.salvationarmyusa.org/usn/
- This website provides acceptable donations and volunteer opportunities. There is a Salvation Army within a mile of the campus, so we could visit the facility to volunteer. To tie this to service-learning, we could research the population that are most benefited by the Salvation Army, the number of resources needed to sustain such an organization, and set specific goals for a project at MCHP.
- Soles4Souls - http://soles4souls.org/
- This website provides information on the purpose of donating shoes and clothing items to help end poverty. This topic is researchable and would be a more global perspective of the work done for Salvation Army (local impact).
- Food Corps - https://foodcorps.org/
- This is an organization focused on healthy eating and changing the ways that schools feed children. They build gardens and teach students in limited-resource schools how to grow fresh food and maintain a healthy food schedule.
- Options for creating MCHP Teams: Think about possible teams that we could create to support research foundations.
- Options for supporting countires in need:
- Options for helping animal organizations:
- Book Drive for Literacy at MCHP:
- http://littlefreelibrary.org/
- Bring in a copy of your favorite book and write an inscription in the cover of why you like it.
- Collect money and list of books to purchase?
- Multi-Cultural Fair/Tolerance Fair/Diversity Fair/Mix-It-Up Day - http://www.tolerance.org/
