Each year, students at St. Francis Xavier Catholic School embark on a rite of passage that has been a defining moment for hundreds of students over the last decade. This pivotal experience for seventh and eighth grade students encourages them to become personally involved in social justice concerns around them through Catholic Social Teachings and the Arrupe Project.
Volunteers are an indispensable part of the work that goes on at the Bullhead City Shelter. The shelter serves as a resource and outreach center which offers more than a place to rest, but also meals, computer access, laundry, showers and hygiene supplies and case management to help people experiencing homelessness find permanent housing solutions.
