Habitat for Humanity Collegiate Challenge, Fort Lauderdale,
Florida
Location: Broward County, South Florida
Student Involvement supports Alternative Break (ASB)
experiences, which are week-long immersive service experiences. A group of
students travel away from campus with the goal of engaging within a new
community through education, service, and reflection.
ASB trips focus on various social issues such as racial
justice, environmental justice, housing, healthcare, poverty, and more. By
forgoing traditional academic breaks, students can participate in quality,
community-based transformational service and dedicate their time to learning
and interacting with different communities.
