Students in Service Program awarding grants for volunteer work
Photos and story by James Hill
The Students in Service program has 60 slots available for interested students who want to earn an education award of a little over $1,000 for 300 hours of service within one year. This comes out to $60,000 that will be awarded to PCC students and a total of 18,000 service hours completed in the Portland community.
In order to apply for the Students in Service program, students must attend an orientation/info session. Students will learn all the necessary information needed to complete the application process at these sessions. These will be held during the first week of October on each campus at various times. The deadline to apply is Oct. 15. Students can contact Samantha Lee at samantha.lee3@pcc.edu or call (971) 722-4184.
