Wheaton College Students Lend a Helping Hand

Nine Wheaton College students spent a Saturday afternoon helping the Museum volunteers prepare for upcoming events as part of their “Season of Service,” a new volunteer initiative for in-coming freshman to help them see programs and projects outside of the campus community. 

Wheaton's Season of Service provides first-year students with an opportunity to learn more about their neighbors in the Greater Norton Metropolitan Area by participating in one of the College's many local community partnerships during their first six weeks on campus. Each First Year Seminar student joins returning students, faculty and staff in a half-day service project benefiting area children or seniors, addressing hunger issues, or improving the environment.
