Service Trips
Service Trips
Volunteer opportunities are typically scheduled during the winter and spring breaks of the academic school year. These trips can range from a weekend to a full week and provide UWSP students with an awesome opportunity to change themselves and the world around them.
"Service trips are life changing experiences; they change the way a person thinks about certain ways of life and helps them to become more open minded and aware of the issues going on beyond their doorsteps."- UWSP SERVE Chicago participant
"Working in groups is the best part about
service trips. It's a great way to get to know
people that you wouldn't otherwise meet!"
- Rushford Cleanup participant
"I've learned that I can actually make a difference!" - Intercity Impact participant
