Position Information

Job Title Student Program Leaders (Summer Employment)
Job Description

Family Volunteer Camp is a program offered by the Notre Dame Alumni Association. Alumni and children from around the country return to campus for a 5 day/night program focused on community service. The camp has several goals: 1) To cultivate a habit of service within family life; 2) To expose participants to a variety of non-profit agencies serving impoverished and vulnerable peoples; 3) To assist participants in learning more about the root causes of poverty and responses they can enact in their own communities; and 4) To strengthen the communal and spiritual life of Notre Dame alumni and their families as an extension of the mission of the University.
Families spend approximately 5 hours a day engaged in community service in the Michiana area. Previous partners include the Center for the Homeless, Hope Ministries, the City of South Bend Parks Department, the YWCA, and Unity Gardens. Additionally, families participate in community-building activities, prayer, and learning while enjoying the unique amenities of campus.
Student Program Leaders will serve as the primary group leaders at the service project sites. In this role they will form working relationships with several nonprofit agencies and they will help manage the daily projects at the work sites: 1) By ensuring volunteers are engaged in meaningful work; 2) By ensuring projects are completed according to the agencies’ specifications; 3) By assisting participants in learning the agencies’ missions and the communities in which they serve.
Student Program Leaders will also serve as ambassadors of the University on behalf of the Alumni Association. They will attend group activities and will be expected to engage alumni and children in meaningful conversation. On a few occasions Student Program Leaders will also supervise younger children during planned activities that are geared towards adults and teens. Student Program Leaders will also provide logistical and administrative support for preparing and executing camp. This position is perfect for current students who are passionate about service and working within diverse communities; who enjoy working with young people; who want to make connections to Notre Dame Alumni; and who thrive in leadership positions.
