Andrea Marinaccio Took Part in Alternative Break in Virginia

2017 Mar 28

Andrea Marinaccio traveled to Sky Meadows State Park in Virginia with a group of fellow Buffalo State students to take part in the Alternative Break program this semester.

Marinaccio helped to mark the park's boundaries to protect plants and animals that live within the park. The trip was designed to help students understand the importance of environmental conservation and stewardship.

The Alternative Break program is a student-led program offered by the Volunteer and Service-Learning Center at Buffalo State. Its mission is to engage student-led teams with community organizations so that students learn about social justice issues and grow in leadership and teamwork skills.
