ABOUT
Learn and Serve Tampa, Inc., a 501 (3)(c) not-for-profit organization, strives to bring quality service-learning into local K-12 schools and make service-learning projects and programs readily available to Tampa-area K-12 students. Our goal is to create a sustainable and institutionalized service-learning hub for training, funding, and support for a dedicated network of educators, community service organizations, and altruistic-minded business leaders in Tampa.
THE SERVICE
Authentic and Reciprocal Service
Projects begin with community need identified and defined by students under the leadership of educators. Service may target needs on a school campus or even take on a global cause. The need drives the call for service and defines the academic learning.
