Freret Neighborhood Center
The Freret Neighborhood Center serves the local community by offering afterschool programs for children as well as classes and workshops for adults (arts & crafts for kids, yoga, computer literacy, and many more). We also host community activities such as block parties, field days, and anti-violence rallies.
Loyola service learning students can help support the center in many ways, including:
- Help children with homework
- Assist with our "arts and entrepreneurship" afterschool program
- Help with organizational tasks around the office (for example, creating and distributing fliers for upcoming events, designing bulletin boards, working on databases and spreadsheets, data entry, etc.)
- Support upcoming events
