Teaming Up Together for Turkey Trot & Lehman L.I.F.E. Student Volunteers!


Teaming up together with students, staff, faculty and administration from the School of Education, Center for School/College Collaboratives, Provost Office, Budget Office, Admin/Finance, Office of Online Education and National Society of Black Engineers, we surpassed last year’s fundraising goals and raised $2,000! Every penny of the proceeds provides students with travel scholarships for Lehman L.I.F.E. Alternative Break programs, where they serve communities in need and develop a sense of global citizenship.

CHECK OUT THESE LEHMAN L.I.F.E. 2018 TRIPS!

Winter Break 2018: Students will travel to Apopka, FL to volunteer at the Hope Community Center with migrant farm workers and undocumented youth.

Spring Break 2018: Lehman students will volunteer in Nicaragua with Global Medical Brigades providing support, leading workshops and learning from medical professionals in the community.

Summer of 2018: Students will travel to Malawi and build Lehman’s own school with the community! Also for the first time ever, Lehman L.I.F.E. will be tied to a Credit Bearing course: A writing intensive senior seminar focusing on “Global Africa,” taught by Lehman’s own School of Education Faculty, Immaculee Harushimana and Faith Muturia!

Kudos and thanks to everyone who also participated in the Annual Turkey Trot! Always fun on the field! Save the Wednesday before Thanksgiving to join us next year!
