At Cornerstone International Community College (CICCC), our students can enjoy a unique experience.
Volunteer Street Cleaning Event
Our students actively participated in a Street Cleaning Event with the Policing Center of the Strathcona Community, fostering a day of community engagement, teamwork, and impactful contribution. As international students aiming to build a future in Canada, we recognize that such activities are pivotal in shaping our sense of belonging and responsibility toward our environment.
Why volunteering is important for international students
Attending community events is ideal for international students to meet new people and learn about local culture. Engaging in volunteer work further facilitates the development of a myriad of skills, encompassing language improvement, communication aptitude, cultural competence, and more. Explore the enriching experiences that await you by joining these communal endeavours!
Voice from Organizer Ana
” When thinking about a street cleaning volunteer, we were hesitant about if that would be a good option; however, I believe students beautifully embraced the cause and concept that goes behind it. It goes far beyond simply cleaning the streets. Fostering the environment we live in and giving back to the community is the main purpose of it. ”
Let’s sustain this culture of active participation, contributing to a brighter, more interconnected community.
