OverviewUSC Pen-Pal Program - Kenya & Uganda

Working with USC Family of Schools partner Saint Agnes, the program strongly emphasizes global awareness and social development as tools for skill development. Using a thematic approach, it encourages students to study and write about peace building on an international level. Implementing pertinent literature, writing exercises, guest speakers, and field trips the students grow in their role as global citizens.
