The Christian Service Project exposes students to a variety of types of community service and assists students in completing their 100-hour community service requirement. The Christian Service Project (CSP) is a program that is co-sponsored by Campus Ministry and the Religious Studies Department. Through this program, students are required to complete four hours of community service each semester in a topic area related to their Religious Studies course (excluding senior elective courses).
The Christian Service Project allows students to reflect on their community service activities as they relate to the Religious Studies curriculum. Students must write a reflection paper relating their service experience to their Religious Studies course each semester, and the Christian Service Project is included in the student's grade for the Religious Studies course.
The service completed through this program (a total of 28 hours over four years) counts towards the graduation requirement of 100 community service hours. Campus Ministry provides resources of local volunteer opportunities and offers limited service trips to assist students in fulfilling the Christian Service Project requirement, however the responsibility to complete this requirement rests ultimately on the student.
Each semester, Campus Ministry provides a list of possible volunteer agencies at which you can complete your Christian Service Project (see below). If you wish to volunteer at an agency for your CSP project that is not on the provided list, you must check with your religion teacher or Campus Ministry to make sure that the agency qualifies for the Christian Service Project assignment.
Your religion teacher may require that your service be specifically direct or indirect. Direct service involves face-to-face interaction with the individuals being served. Indirect service is behind the scenes and may involve fundraising, office work, organizing a food pantry, etc. Make sure you understand your teacher's requirement.
PLEASE NOTE: Service projects hosted by the organizations on this list are NOT sponsored by NDB. Parents are responsible for students' transportation, supervision, and safety at such events.
