Once you have been accepted into the club, you have to do 10 service points.

You do that with the three C’s, which are Campus, Community, and Club. For example, to earn service points for campus you can help out with homecoming, community, or volunteer for tutoring.

We participate in Club Rush, children’s holiday party, the blood drive and a lot of other events.
