Since a young age, I have had a passion for service and connecting with people. I decided to take my passion and turn it into action by becoming a JV. While working for the Mustard Seed School, I am looking forward to immersing myself in the community and connecting with the people of Sacramento. Even though this is a very transitional time for me along with many other young people, I am excited for the opportunity to grow and learn more about myself along with those in my community.  

Each year, hundreds of young people make the decision to commit to a year or two of service with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. Jesuit Volunteers (JVs) engage in vital service within communities around the country. Send Me to Serve (SMTS) has two primary functions: (1) To help incoming Jesuit Volunteers and their friends and families to connect more deeply with the mission of JVC; and (2) To raise funds in support of JVC, which will help us continue to partner with over 200 non-profit agencies and provide vital service to tens of thousands of people every year.
