Leadership Through Service (LTS) develops a supportive peer network for students and empowers them to positively impact their community on and off campus through volunteering. LTS is a program for students who have unmet financial need and/or are first-generation college students (neither parents graduated from college).
Students volunteer about 30 hours over a semester with the opportunity to return for a second semester. Students volunteer through the program and also on their own. On average, members volunteer about 2 hours per week total. There are ten students per semester in the program.
Benefits of Leadership Through Service
Service Options
Members do some volunteering on their own. Members select any nonprofit, or multiple nonprofits, that fits their goals and interests. Members work with the program coordinator to find service sites that align with their personal and professional goals.
In addition, members serve on a committee of other LTS students where they plan service-related programs or events. All committee volunteering, independent volunteering, LTS meetings, and select professional and personal development activities count toward your 30 program hours.
