Builders Beyond Borders Seeks High School Students for Enrollment

Community Service Opportunity for High School Students

Enrollment is open for high school students to participate in the Builders Beyond Borders (B3) program for the upcoming year. Enrollment is available on the B3 website at: http://www.buildersbeyondborders.org/student-enrollment/ Builders Beyond Borders (B3) is a non-profit organization that engages high school students – representing more than 20 local high schools – in leadership training through local and global community service projects. B3 volunteers serve Fairfield County throughout the school year and travel to Latin America in the spring to build needed facilities for deserving communities. B3 is a wonderful opportunity for students to make a difference both in Fairfield County and abroad, and connect with like-minded students from area schools. B3 will be travelling to Nicaragua in 2017 for the global service portion of the program.

Students interested in learning more about B3 and/or enrolling in the upcoming program year are invited to attend a B3 Info Session. The next Info Sessions are scheduled for Wednesday, August 17, 2016 and Tuesday, August 30, 2016 at 6:30pm at the B3 office (66 Fort Point St., Norwalk, CT 06855).

Future Info Sessions will be held in September. See pictures and videos of past projects, speak to currently enrolled students and adult volunteers, and meet the B3 staff. Please contact B3 if you plan to attend at (203) 847-5220 or visit our website for more information: mailto:info@buildersbeyondborders.org.
