Alternative Breaks


Alternative Breaks is a student led program of the Cornell Public Service Center that sends over 100 students every spring break to participate in drug- and alcohol-free service learning oriented trips. Join one of our amazing teams of students that will spend Spring Break tackling service-learning projects on issues as varied as urban poverty, hunger, inadequate housing, domestic violence, homelessness, civil rights, HIV/AIDS, farm-workers, at-risk youth and environmental damage. Trip sites include Boston, Cape Cod, Lake Placid, New York City, Orlando, Philadelphia and rural West Virginia.

Take the Challenge. Break Stereotypes. Do Something. Dare to go outside your comfort zone.
