The mission of our three signature programs (University Service-Learning, America Reads, and AmeriCorps) is to:
ASU students enrolled in 3-credit USL courses complete coursework relevant to the 70-100 required service hours performed at an approved Community Partner site. USL also offers professional development service-learning workshops for K-12 teachers. Other service-learning tools, resources, and links are provided for ASU faculty and community members.
ASU students are matched with K-8th grade children living in low income areas and provide mentoring and academic tutoring tailored to the child’s needs. Programming is supported by partnerships with local schools and community centers. Tutors awarded Federal Work-Study are eligible for positions starting at $12.00/hour, with opportunities for promotion.
Education is at the heart of our future. Our future lies in our ability to dream. What we dream we can create. What we create we can become.”
