On Thursday February 13th the Connect2Complete program at Miami Hamilton had their first Civic Engagement project of the semester! We kicked it off by serving at St. Raphael's Social Service Center, a part of the Mercy Health network.
We decided it would be great for the students to provide a service to others by volunteering. To accomplish this the ENG109 English Language Learners class served at St. Raph's by unpacking boxes and stocking shelves with donated food. The students were working on a memoir project focusing on a time of need in their own lives.
Everyone had a marvelous time working with one another. We had a wonderful orientation covering the services St. Raph's provides to the community, how community members qualify and receive the services and the importance of providing a variety of services under in one location!
For more information on St. Raph's please visit their website or facebook!
Here are a few pictures from the project! If you would like to see the rest please visit the Flickr set!
