Alumni Month of Service is a unique opportunity to unite La Salle grads through community service. With over 7,000 alumni living in nearly every state, the potential to have a positive and meaningful impact in the community is enormous.
During the month of April, Alumni were encouraged to:
•Volunteer! Projects were organized in Pasadena, the Bay Area, Orange County, San Diego & New York City.
•Get involved in a service project in their own community
•Share their volunteer experience and pictures with the La Salle community for a chance to win alumni swag!
By volunteering, alums embody the mission of La Salle College Preparatory and salute their Alma Mater’s commitment to service to others.
