Over Winter Recess, a group of King’s students traveled to Martin, Kentucky to volunteer with the Christian Appalachian Project, helping restore homes and support the local community.
“While on SpringSERVE, I spent the week helping tear down and rebuild a resident’s porch. We got to know her story and hear the stories of Kentucky through her and her sisters. The self-reflection and growth we all had on this trip was unbelievable. We were able to closely bond with one another and form friendships with students from other schools and the community of Martin,” said Carolyne Wintersteen, a Mass Communications junior.
“I wish I had known about SERVE earlier in my college career because I have never felt happier serving people in different communities. SERVE not only helped me build my communication skills, but also form long lasting connections with other students and staff!”
