Do Good, Have Fun

The PrOVES program is designed to give students a chance to meet other like-minded first-year students. You'll work hard and feel great! You'll develop lasting relationships and leadership skills. You'll explore the local community and build a foundation for service activities in our area. Most of all, you'll have FUN!
