Hope Alive
Tuesdays and Fridays, 2:15-5:30
[ meet at Foster-Walker Complex ]

Hope Alive runs an afterschool program for over fifty children between the ages of 5 and 14 in the Cabrini Green community. They are currently reorganizing the program after it doubled in size. As an OASIS site, Northwestern students will be going to tutor neighborhood children twice a week, leaving campus at 2:30 and arriving at the site around 3 PM. We would leave at 5:30 and arrive at campus at 6 PM.

Cabrini Green is a part of Chicago that is infamous around the country for violence and poverty. The community is making a tremendous effort to reform itself from the inside out. It would be an excellent opportunity to help in a community about which Northwestern students know so little and from which they could learn a great deal.
