William R. Harvey Leadership Institute - W.D.C. Harvey Scholars
The William R. Harvey Leadership Institute is committed to making a difference, both locally and worldwide. In May 2016, the WRHLI launched its International Service Learning Program, travelling to the Dominican Republic for an eight-day experience.
In May 2017, WRHLI Fellows travelled to Costa Rica for a ten-day service learning initiative. A country known for its rich ecosystems and remarkable landscapes, Costa Rica provided students with a memorable travel experience, while also allowing them to serve a population with a lifestyle much different from their own.
Throughout the program, students taught English language at several local high schools, worked at the local foodbank, worked alongside Park Rangers in a National Park, and repainted a rural elementary school playground.
