ags service point guidelines

As students, we juggle school, work, family, and friends and often we feel that we don't have enough time in our busy schedules to breathe, let alone to help others. Service enhances our lives and lets us give something back for the privilege of pursuing an education. We strongly encourage you to engage in any kind of volunteer work you enjoy and, although you earn AGS service points for your efforts, your real reward is knowing you have done something important- contributing to the health of our world.

At Alpha Gamma Sigma, we believe that community service teaches us to look outside of our immediate circles and realize that we are part of a larger picture; we are all responsible for the well-being of our towns, our state, our country, and our world.
