WHAT: ServeUP Service Trip to New Orleans via bus for college students from area colleges. ServeUp brings together students from a variety of cultural and religious backgrounds to serve together for a week and explore the teachings of Jesus and the Christian faith. Students from all faith (or no faith) backgrounds are welcome.
WHEN: February 28 - March 9, 2014 Requirements: Tetanus shot Transportation: A tour bus from Burlington to New Orleans, provides transportation around the city during the week and the return trip back (travel time 30 hours). Don't be scared off by the bus ride! It's a great time to make new friends, talk, study, sleep, watch movies, play games, and see the country!
Accommodations: A church community center in a safe neighborhood near worksites provides housing with beds, showers, 3 meals per day and snacks in the evening. Local volunteers cook delicious New Orleans-style meals every evening.
COST: Total cost is $595 and includes transportation, housing, equipment and all meals (except 2 meals out in the French Quarter). Financial aid is available and students' costs are subsidized (at least partially) by group fundraising. A $100 deposit secures you a seat on the bus upon acceptance to attend the trip.
