Trinity University places its recent college graduates from all fields of study on high school campuses as near-peer college advisers to lead low-income and first-generation students to college. The college advisers receive intensive training that focuses on college access, college admissions, financial aid, student services, diversity, community service, and professionalism. Advisers also work to foster a college-going culture within the schools they serve, which is one of the best predictors of whether students will pursue higher education at all.

Trinity University's chapter of Foundation for International Medical Relief aims to provide access to medical care for the millions of underprivileged and medically underserved children around the world. Many of our members have travelled to medically underserved countries such as Nicaragua and Peru to volunteer at FIMRC clinics.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in youth is not a rare occurrence. SCA is the leading cause of non-traumatic death in youth, happening without warning and proving fatal in 92% of cases. Most heart conditions that lead to SCA can be easily detected with a heart screening. Medical history and physical exam are not enough. Active teens appear healthy so reported symptoms are often overlooked by doctors. With no symptoms, doctors deem testing unnecessary, making these tests expensive and not covered by medical insurance. As a result, serious heart conditions go undetected and young people die unnecessarily. We know that a thoughtful use of a few simple tests can identify many of the students at risk of SCA and get them the treatment they need. The consequence of not performing these screens is to leave at-risk youth to their own fate, an action that is not acceptable to AugustHeart.

STAND| One People, One Tribe is a non-profit organization at the University of the Incarnate Word. We aim to make a difference in the world by unifying our world as One People, One Tribe. Through this approach we seek to make in impact by assisting our domestic community and Global as well. We are a branch of Gulu Hope, our Mother organization, and our partnership with them helps us improve the lives of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPS) in poverty through education. The two platforms that STAND| One People, One Tribe follows are the following: 1) International Aid 2) Domestic Community Outreach Through International Aid we have the “5 Lands Project”. The “5 Lands Project” focuses on eliminating poverty and giving hope to the following continents: North/South America, Asia, Africa and Australia. Once we establish ourselves in these continents we are given a timeline of 5-10 years in order to build our presence there. We build the following facilities: 1) Vocational School, 2) Medical Clinics, 3) Water Wells and 4) Orphanages. We take into consideration the needs of the natives first before anything else and strive to live off this motto “If you give a man a fish he eats for a day, but if you teach a man to fish he eats for a lifetime.” Through this motto we focus on educating the people through vocational skills, medical assistance, water for life and children needs. The goal with this project is that within 30 years from now people will have 5 areas to work in and give back to the world. Through our Domestic Community Outreach members will have the opportunity to make a difference in their communities and nation by volunteering. Every month we strive to have at least one community project where we volunteer at different locations. Members are encouraged to pitch in ideas for places to work with in order to be universal. By reaching out to our “Domestic Community” we are a beckon of hope and gain a stronger understanding of community struggles. With this approach, STAND gives back to the community and interacts with the world around them. STAND| One People, One Tribe is made for the purpose of service and action. We provide hope to those less fortunate and strive to reach a new direction in our own lives through others. The continuation of our mission brings to life the model of “making a difference” both internationally and domestically. Through the words of Gandhi “we are the change we want to see in this world.”
