Volunteers at one of our weekly Letters to Seniors groups

Student Open Circles is committed to the well-being of young people. As Amanda describes, we help students to discover, care for, and grow into wholeness of soul, self, spirit, and community. For Sylvia, this happened as she volunteered and reflected on her experiences with us every week at an inner-city school. As students graduate and carry these experiences into the world, there is a lovely ripple effect into the lives of others; for Sylvia, the lessons she takes with her empowers her to be a better doctor to marginalized populations.

Thank you for supporting us in fostering whole-life well-being in the lives of these young people. Thank you for believing in their amazing potential to make a positive difference in the lives of others.
