On Saturday, March 27th, the USF volleyball team went to Half Moon Bay, CA to volunteer with the organization Ayudando Latinos a Soñar (ALAS), an organization that has been working very closely for the last year with the School of Education and University Ministry. The team helped with the food distribution to families that have been affected by the pandemic. 

Members of the Volleyball team had participated in the 2020 Winter Arrupe Immersions to Peru, where they continued to work closely with the Arrupe Initiatives team.

“The team really enjoyed their experience in Half Moon Bay, and is so impressed with the work ALAS does!”  – Frank Lavrisha, coach of the Volleyball team.

We invite all the USF community who are interested in working closely with ALAS to contact Kique Bazán.

Students looking to volunteer please contact Mauricio Diaz de Leon to join the ALAS tutoring program:

University Ministry is supporting farmworker families in Half Moon Bay, California by providing tutoring services through ALAS (Ayudando A Latinos A Soñar). Our volunteers meet virtually with students once a week to help with assignments, homework, and provide overall mentorship.

Wednesdays: 12:30pm – 2 p.m.
