Spread the L.O.V.E.
The Lasallian Outreach Volunteer Experience (L.O.V.E.) provides service immersion experiences for Manhattan University students. Group participants examine their own identities and learn about social justice together in preparation for their experience. On the trips, students are immersed in the local community through experiences with partner organizations. Participants are encouraged to bring what they experience back to campus to engage in local service and advocacy. Each trip takes place during school breaks and is based on the five pillars of L.O.V.E.: Community, Service & Social Justice, Spirituality, Simple Living and Cultural Immersion. Learn more about L.O.V.E.

Upcoming LOVE trips
LOVE Washington, DC
Manhattan University has proudly participated in the Ignatian Family Teach-In for the past several years. This LOVE trip to Washington, DC, gives our students the opportunity to ground themselves in Catholic Social Teaching and the spirituality of helping others through hands-on service in the nation's capital; to encounter and ally with those who are marginalized; and to commit to solidarity and kinship.
LOVE Blackfeet, MT
CMSA will spend one week at the De La Salle Blackfeet School in Browning, MT, and their Okinisookawa Immersion Program. The OKI-NI-SOO-KA-WA (Come & See): Blackfeet Immersion Program began in 2003 as an initiative to address the lack of understanding of Native American communities and to spread awareness throughout the country of the De La Salle Blackfeet School ministry, located on the Blackfeet Nation Reservation. In its twenty years of operating the immersion program, De La Salle Blackfeet has hosted approximately 4,000 students from high schools and colleges around the country.
LOVE Camden, NJ
DeSales Service Works immersion trips offer people of all ages the opportunity to get away, reflect, pray and serve people in need. All trip themes are rooted in the core teaching of St. Francis de Sales and involve direct service, facilitated reflection, presentations on Catholic Social Teaching, and prayer. Volunteers come to do much-needed, practical service in a very poor community both in Camden and nearby Philadelphia. They serve, pray, reflect and recreate while living in the DSW community.
