Community Service Spring Break

Coconut Telegraph

SRQ DAILY

SATURDAY MAR 17, 2018 |

The Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center hosted these collegiates for a week to help with projects at their campus as well as projects at other non-profits in Sarasota. This Monday, the business students will put on gardening gloves and help with spring cleanup around Pines of Sarasota’s 25-acre campus. In the afternoon, instead of the normal spring break beach volleyball, these helpful students will be spending quality time with Pines of Sarasota’s residents in a rousing game of balloon volleyball. “Volunteers are part of the fabric of Pines of Sarasota’s success. We are so honored to have the Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center include us in the FisherCares trip. To have 15 college students give of their time to help us with our grounds and spend some quality time with our residents has enormous value to our organization,” explains Ivy Ruark, Director of Volunteer Services.
