https://www.stedwards.edu/campus-ministry/educating-justiceSt. Edward's University Campus Ministry is raising funds for the 10th Annual Miles for a Mission 5K fun run/walk. Proceeds from the 5K go to support the Alternative Spring Break and International Immersion service outreach programs. With 12 different domestic locations and five different international experiences, these programs offer students a variety of experiences and service opportunities. Domestically, students could be doing service ranging from helping with Harvey relief, low income schools in Chicago, issues of homeless, and others! The international trips offer students a longer experience where they get to be immersed in an entirely new culture, often living directly with the people they serve. For example, a group will travel to Montreal, Canada to live with the adults with disabilities in the L'arche community. These trips allow students to serve many different populations in need, while also learning about the social justice issues impacting the communities they go into.
