Students Spend Vacation Volunteering

March 22, 2012

Savannah Marshall learned a lot over spring break: How to paint a room, how to find Lowell’s Belvidere neighborhood and where to get the best deal on fried chicken near campus. But perhaps the most important thing she learned is that small acts can lead to big changes.

“You don’t always have to make an enormous effort to change the world. Simple things can make a huge difference,” said Marshall, who spent her vacation week participating in the Alternative Spring Break Club’s Lowell Immersion project.
