In service, satisfaction
Virtual ‘Legacy of Learning’ session will address everyday altruism
As a Guiding Value, “service before self” shapes the Norwich University’s community’s behavior and attitudes. During the coronavirus pandemic, marked by distancing and remoteness, service may sometimes amount to simple kindness.
At 12:30 p.m. Friday, the Center for Civic Engagement will lead a virtual “Legacy of Learning” session on service “Service-Living: How to Integrate Service into Your Everyday Life for a Positive Impact.”
In the session, Center for Civic Engagement Director Nicole DiDomenico M’15 and Assistant Director Abigail Joyal ’19 will join moderator Jenny Goudreau ’90, a professional educator and leadership coach, to explore volunteerism virtual or distanced and its benefit to mental and physical health.
