Each winter and spring semester students sign up for Alternative Break, participating in public service all around the world related to social and environmental problems. This spring break eighty-one students went on seven trips. Their goal: to make a difference in DC, Philadelphia, Maine, Florida, George, California, and Guatemala.

Kaylee Wolfe ’15, social media team member and team leader of the Guatemala trip, suggested that the students take pictures from their experience and tag it with #BowdoinASB. The result of this suggestion is this Storify, collecting Instagram photos and tweets from the break. Now you can experience Alternative Spring Break with them.

Alternative Spring Break is organized and supported by the McKeen Center for the Common Good. To read more about their trips, past and present, visit this page.
