Volunteer Opportunities

  • Apply to the Native American Rights Alt Break

    Are you interested in Native American Rights? Do you want to have an opportunity to be immersed in Native American culture and do meaningful service? Apply to go on this Alternative Break and have a once in a lifetime opportunity to live and do service on the Cherokee Reservation

    During this week long trip (March 15-23) students will be living and working within the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma, with a focus on human rights issues. This is a great opportunity to be immersed in Native American culture and assist the Cherokee community through meaningful service. In the past, we have met with local leaders to discuss current issues facing the Cherokee Nation, built wheelchair ramps for people with disabilities, repaired houses for the elderly and participated in cultural activities such as basket weaving and story telling. 

    Apply by October 29th at noon by completing this application!
