Vocational Nursing students of Stanbridge College served lunch to the underprivileged and homeless children of Project Hope Alliance.
Irvine, CA, June 17, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Vocational Nursing students of Stanbridge College, a technical college that offers training in Healthcare and Information Technology, recently volunteered their time to help serve lunch to the children of Project Hope Alliance. The school provides education and learning resources for underprivileged children, grades 1 through 8, who live in temporary housing including motels and shelters in Orange County. Stanbridge College has consistently supported Project Hope Alliance through donations of lunches, school supplies, clothing and household items for the children and their families.
“It was fun, these kids are great and they got everything they deserved today and hopefully we’ll be able to provide them more,” stated Jason Kilheeney, VN student and volunteer.
Students at Stanbridge College are encouraged to give back to their local and global community. Through REACH, students are able to work with non-profits including the Project Hope Alliance to support those in need and to apply their educational skills and critical thinking in a structured learning environment. In addition to learning how to work with people in real-world scenarios and supporting those in need, students learn compassion for their community members.
"It is good to show your face just so they know, hey I am here, I am here to help, I have extra time for kids in need, for anyone in need really," said Elizabeth Macney, VN student and volunteer.
