What is Service-Learning? Service-learning is a learning experience first and a service experience second. Read to learn about service-learning and reach out to us to see what we do to help you and your students have a successful service-learning experience! We want to help you empower the next generation of compassionate leaders!

This morning our Columbus City Schools Summer Experience Student Leaders did their service-projects for the nonprofits they choose to help this summer! The made snack kits and decorated lunch sacks for The Open Shelter (Columbus, Ohio) & Star House. They made blankets for Columbus Zoo and Aquarium & blanket and mini hammocks for the Ohio Wildlife Center! Love seeing the impact these young leaders on making on the community issues that are most important to them.

Today was an amazing morning of interviews with nonprofits who are helping the community issues the student leaders chose to focus on for their service-learning projects this summer! We couldn't empower our students to make a difference in the community without the support of our nonprofit partners like Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, Ohio Wildlife Center, The Open Shelter (Columbus, Ohio), and Star House. Check back to see who and how the students decide to help our community!

We ended week 2 of our Summer of Service program with students enjoying a beautiful morning at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium to learn more about how they help animals in the wild. Wildlife is one of the three different community issues that students can choose this summer for their service-learning project.

This week the students in our Summer of Service program as part of the Columbus City Schools' Summer Experience, visited the Mid-Ohio Food Collective to learn more about how they are helping to address hunger in our community. Hunger is one of the three different community issues that students can choose this summer for their service-learning project.

We kicked off our summer partnership with Columbus City Schools Summer Experience today with our Summer of Service service-learning program! Students learned about what is means to be a leader and created their own Leadership Crests! Follow along for the next 4 weeks to see who and how students decide to help make an impact in their community!
