St. Joseph’s College is no stranger to giving back. Throughout the academic year, students volunteer time and energy toward service-oriented activities. Whether participating in an alternative winter break or volunteering at a local soup kitchen, our students step up and help out in a big way.
During the holiday season, SJC Brooklyn ramps up its efforts to provide food, clothes and gifts to those in need. By partnering with local charities, shelters and food pantries, the College community does all it can to ensure no one goes hungry or cold during the holidays.
