| I have never done this as an
Residence Life Program but until this year, Community Service Programs
were not mandatory at our college. I did however do this with my
4-H club several times in high school, and am planning on doing it
this year at my college.
The project is simple. Find
out about a local War Veteran's Hospital and see if they would like to
receive Valentines for some of the Veterans. Then gather
together a group and create Valentines. You can't get very
individualized but you can be creative using various materials etc.
Someone then must deliver the Valentines to the Hospital or possibly
mail them if the Hospital is further away. In the end, residents will
have a good time working together making the Valentines and feel good
because they know they brightened someone' day.
