Southeast Technical College

Southeast Technical College students in Human Resource Management and Foundations of Business classes, along with faculty and staff, spent a combined 67 hours organizing and cleaning at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore facility. Over the course of two days, these volunteers helped the ReStore team rearrange and organize every department in the store. ReStore is a non-profit home improvement store and donation center. The effort was a part of Service to Community (STC) Days, a twice-yearly initative to encourage engagement in the community by students and staff.

This past summer, Breanna Clark planted trees, helped run summer camp activities and formed life-long friendships by volunteering for AmeriCorps' NCCC Summer of Service Program. Since middle school, Clark has been interested in environmental causes such as access to the outdoors for everyone and preserving biodiversity. She plans to work in a career advancing environmental justice once she graduates from Southeast Technical College in spring 2025 with a degree in Digital Media Production.

Six students from the Surgical Technology program at Southeast Technical College volunteered to assist the Sioux Falls Lions Club at the Howard Fall Festival. The students logged nearly 30 community service hours assisting with vision screenings as part of Southeast Tech's annual Service to Community (STC) Days.
