“Service Learning in Health and Wellness” is a course offered by CCAPP at The City College of NY, which guides students to learn through hands-on services that address health issues in Harlem.
We've worked on making healthy snacks available in school vending machines, improved school cafeteria’s recycling, convinced local bodegas to offer healthy lunches, hosted farmers’ market, and developed a Healthy Living Guide with cancer prevention tips.

Bodega Group A Update
After contacting the bodega owners, we finally received the price list for the lunch specials from the two bodegas that are particpating in the Service Learning Project. Deli Grocery which is located at 1622 between 139th and 140th Streets will be offering a grilled chicken sandwich on whole wheat bread with a bottle of water for $3.25. Campus Deli located at 501W 139th Street will be serving a chicken wrap, a piece of fruit, and a bottle of water for $5.00. These lunch specials are extremely affordable and thus attractive so we hope to hear good things from the bodega owners once posters go up. We will actually be meeting in the next two days to discuss poster ideas to advertise the actual lunch specials. We will also be meeting this weekend (hopefully Saturday if the weather permits) to shoot our video. We plan to include short segments of us interviewing the bodega owners as well as random Harlem residents so that should be fun. Another productive week down, and only a few more to go until our celebration event!! We can't wait :)
