ABOUT
US
Learning
at Moravian College takes place not only in the classroom, but in
a host of other ways, one of which is through community service.
The Community Service Center seeks to be a bridge between the community
service needs of the greater Lehigh Valley and the campus community.
Students may
choose to be part of any number of mentoring and tutoring programs.
Most notably students may become part of The
Learning Connection program which brings at-risk students to
our campus for monthly programs. Students may also choose to get
involved with the Colleges America
Reads* literacy program, and Habitat for
Humanity Campus Chapter. Other options range from volunteering
in an area historical museum, to working with area out-reach efforts
such as soup kitchens and food banks that give aid those in need.
Some of these positions can be made a part of a students Federal
work-study program.
Location
Moravian's Community Service Center is located at 1309 Main Street, just north of Elizabeth Avenue in the Student Affairs Complex.
