VFC Alternative Break

03/31/2020

At the end of February and the beginning of March we welcomed 224 volunteers from 7 schools! They served at community host sites in 5 different states!

Although the alternative breaks scheduled for the last two weeks of March were canceled, we are so proud of the students, schools, and communities that are doing their part to slow the spread of Covid-19.

We are thinking about everyone impacted during this crisis, and are so grateful for our amazing volunteers and community partners. We can’t wait for alternative breaks 2021!

Students from Worcester Polytechnic Institute were recognized for their volunteer efforts in the Roanoke community by Roanoke City Council. They spent their fall break volunteering at Lick Run Farm, mulching, planting, and weeding. They also volunteered at the rescue mission during their visit, they stuffed holiday cards and served dinner to the community.
