Students impact communities with Alternative Breaks

Rather than laying out on the beach or relaxing at home, Ball State students have the opportunity to volunteer and have a positive impact on a community during their spring break. The Alternative Breaks Association is taking a group of students to volunteer at Community Threads in Arlington Heights, Illinois during the university’s spring break from March 5 through March 12. Community Threads is a nonprofit thrift store that is driven by volunteer work.
