Arrupe Service Program

Seven-Week Program

The seven-week program provides students with an opportunity to engage in service for an entire quarter. Students commit to serve one day a week for seven-weeks at one of our many service sites. At these sites, students will work with the elderly, senior citizens with memory disorders, children in after-school programs, children who need tutoring, children/adults with disabilities, guests of soup kitchens and food pantries, or they can participate in service during their lunch period through the social justice awareness program Amnesty/Pax Christi USA.
