Our volunteers cleaned up a total of 76 bags of trash at Douglass Park! Great job everyone!

03/23/2021

Our virtual volunteering group is working with the Highland Support Project, an organization that works to empower indigenous communities by providing opportunities for education, community organization, addressing health and poverty, and more. We took a virtual cooking class that focused on traditional Guatemalan cooking and watched an educational movie together! Experiencing guatemala from our homes has been an amazing experience!

03/22/2021

Today kicks off our spring break service trips! Although we still can’t do our normal trips across the country, we are still finding ways to learn and serve our community! Our in person trip is working with Living lands & waters,cleaning up at Douglas Park and they filled a whopping 35 bags today! Great job everyone! Stay tuned to see what else we are up to this week!

03/16/2021

Our popcorn fundraiser to raise money for the highland support project is live! We will be working with the highland support project for our virtual spring break trip this year. The money we raise will go directly towards the donation of a clean burning stove for a family in Guatemala.

If you would like to earn one fundraising credit for ASB, please email us proof of purchase. Also, if you are interested in joining our virtual trip to Guatemala from March 22nd-24th please email us! There are still spots open!

02/24/2021

We have exciting news to share regarding our spring trips for this year! There will be 2 different opportunities available for you to participate in. Both opportunities will be for 3 days (March 22-24).

Our in person service event will be in partnership with the Living Lands & Water. This will be a 3 day event lasting a couple hours each day. Our group will go out to a local spot that needs beautifying and clean up the area (probably along the lakefront). This is a competition between other schools- the school that collects the most garbage will win a prize! (Hopefully that will be us!)

Our virtual event will be experiencing Guatemala from your home! We are working with an organization called Highland Support Project, that works to empower indigenous communities by providing opportunities for education, community organization,
supporting social entrepreneurs, and addressing health and poverty in the face of shifting political arenas and environmental changes. This opportunity will consist of speakers and discussions on Guatemalan culture. We will be fundraising for a clean-burning stove and virtually connecting with the family receiving it.

If you are interested, please fill out the form that is in our bio, or check your email!
