Community Service Projects: School of the Week

Saint Anselm College - Student volunteers had an interesting community service idea: recruit other schools in the area to raise money, through the Pennies for Peace program of the Central Asia Institute, to fund the building, supplying and maintenance of a school in Pakistan or Afghanistan. The Saint Anselm SIFE team brought the Pennies for Peace Program into 12 Greater Manchester schools, and each school raised money for the project. The team met their goal of raising over $10,000 to fund at least one new school. Saint Anselm College gave 12 other schools a great community service opportunity.
