Allendale Campus
Students

Join forces with Alternative Breaks and Family Promise right here on campus! Family Promise is dedicated to helping families facing homelessness. Their mission is to empower the homeless and low-income families to achieve sustainable independence through a community-based approach by connecting families to emergency services, housing, stabilization, and family support services. Family Promise is working towards ending homelessness one family at a time. You can learn more about them here. We will be helping out with their Partners in Housing program. We'll be crafting welcome home banners, spreading messages of celebration to families transitioning from shelters to mobile homes. These banners will enhance their new homes, creating a warm and uplifting welcome. Be a part of this impactful event at Grand Valley's Allendale campus in Kirkhof, room 2201, from 5-7 pm on January 28. Plus, snacks will be provided to keep the creativity flowing. RSVP below to make a difference together!

Alternative Breaks (AB) is a service organization that sends out week-long environmental and social service trips over spring and winter break. Members who go on trips will complete over 40+ hours of service and be led by our amazing Site Leaders! One of the main goals of AB is to bring what we learned on our trips back to Grand Valley's campus. We have monthly events that work to give back to our local community. We want to bring service back home to West Michigan! AB is not religiously affiliated and welcomes people of all faiths and beliefs. There are also opportunities to grow leadership skills by becoming a site leader or e-board member.
