Giving back to my hometown

20 Years Strong Service Project:

Attorney Becky Laffitte
Mentoring USC Salkehatchie Student Group

Why did you choose this project?

As a native of Allendale, SC, USC Salkehatchie holds a special place in my heart. The campus plays a vital role in the community and is a lifeline for many who may have no other options for higher education. I was recently honored by the opportunity to mentor a student group from the college at Allendale First Baptist, my home church. I spoke to them on the importance of faith, persistence and belief in the possibilities of a bright future.
