Tree Planting at Bunche Middle School


Hey all!

Hope you are all having a fabulous and relaxing weekend! This morning, Natanya, Sarrah and I (along with Natanya's roommate Molly) headed out to Bunche Middle School in Compton to participate in a Tree People campus planting event. The USC Muslim Student Association and Hindu Student Organization also participated in the event. There were so many people there and it was such a great time working together and meeting new people through community service while reppin' SC. Everyone at the event worked in teams and we planted a total of 23 trees, which is great for mother nature and for the kids, who get a greener campus with more shade and beautiful trees!

If you couldn't make it this time, I really hope you join us at future service events. The more people who participate, the more we can really bring interfaith service to life in our community. :)

Enjoy our pictures below!
