2018 Apr 11

Nearly 60 Widener University students took part in the national Alternative Spring Break program this semester on university-sponsored service trips to five locations around the United States.

Though their destinations varied, the students were all driven to help others and expand their worldviews. Widener has been participating in the national Alternative Spring Break program for nearly two decades, partnering with Habitat for Humanity to serve underdeveloped or low-income areas, or places affected by natural disaster.

Students who participated in the program, and the areas where they traveled, included:

Grace Kimmel of Pottsville, Pennsylvania, 17901. Kimmel traveled to Sacramento, California.

In addition to the national program, Widener also facilitated travel for students who visited Costa Rica, Honduras, and Trinidad and Tobago for service-oriented experiences during spring break.
