Alternative Breaks at SMU

Alternative Breaks at SMU AB was founded in 1987 and is dedicated to serving those in need while developing Active Citizens.

We provide world changing service, and a life changing experience. SMU AB is dedicated to providing service to those truly in need who are victims of social injustice. The program also seeks to develop lifelong Active Citizenship in all of our participants in order to build lasting change and create an Active Citizen Movement. We do this by sending students and faculty on direct service trips all across the world, all throughout the year.

Meet one of our amazing site leaders Natesa (). She is our queen of sanding! “Being a part of Exec this year made me SO ready to finally attend a trip. I am beyond grateful to my fellow members for making me laugh 24/7, singing to one direction while we work, and simply being a positive influence. I am also so proud of all of the work we have accomplished to help the homeowner in the reconstruction process. I cannot wait to see our final progress tomorrow morning 😊”

Hello meet our trip member Nia Parker ()! Installing drywall 💪🏾

“I came to Houston because giving back is just something I love to do. Seeing the smiles and gratitude from those I’ve helped is all the reward I need. I’ve found my niche in measuring, cutting and installing sheetrock and it has become something I really enjoy. I love my construction team and couldn’t have asked for a better one.”

Meet our trip member Sarah Subramanian(.jeziah)!

Here is what she took away from service today:
“A lot of times it is really hard to process disasters as more than just statics, but today, meeting the homeowner and hearing their story really made it more than just a statistic. Today’s experience made me realize that statistic aren’t just numbers-they are people.”
