The students have now identified how to help the homeless in order to make a difference in the world. One is by becoming aware of the homeless problem in Iowa. Secondly, the students have shared the information with others. Thirdly, the students have identified how they individually can make a difference. Activities they selected to help the Catholic Worker House were:
To bake a dessert for part of a meal
To identify and select some of their toys and books to give to the homeless shelter.
To select some clothes to give to the homeless shelter
To donate canned goods
To make a care bag which contains shampoo, combs, soap, toothpaste and a toothbrush.
This service learning project was identified by the students so they could make a difference in their community. This was a way to serve their community. These are truly student leaders.
Great ideas for helping the homeless!
