More Ways to Serve!

CalSERVES announces Service Scholars, a service learning and internship opportunity for students who want to make a difference 

 


Martin Luther King once said “Everyone can be great, because everyone can serve.” That powerful sentiment is central to the vision of our programs as we work to connect the time, energy and talents of those who wish to serve with unmet and pressing community needs. Through a range of service opportunities, from full-time AmeriCorps leadership positions to one-time volunteer experiences, we are able to offer hundreds of people each year the chance to give back to their communities. 

We’re excited to be adding one more opportunity to the mix with the launch of Service Scholars, which places college student interns in our after school programs. Scholars serve as role models and bring focused, inspiring instruction to youth in one of four areas of specialty: Art, STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), PE/Nutrition or Literacy.

Scholars will serve 10 hours a week and earn university credit in the Fall semester, then continue as paid interns for Spring semester and earn a $1500 stipend. A gas stipend will also be provided.
