Collaborating to Find Our Solution for Plastic Pollution | John Peters, Men’s Golf

I am so grateful to participate in this great environment and be able to help nonprofits like Ocean Pledge while simultaneously growing my knowledge of the world around me.” Read more.

ACE IN PLACE | PERU

Great Memories | Gisele Tapia, Softball

“ACE in Place was a unique experience because I got to experience a new culture and work with people from different parts of the world without leaving my family. This experience allowed me to understand another Latin culture/community and inspired me to take pride in my culture in the same way the people from Peru do.” Read more.

ACE IN PLACE | VIETNAM

Making a Splash into Vietnam | Seamus Harding Jr., Swimming & Diving

“This experience was something that I never thought would be this fantastic over Zoom. It was probably the most fun I have had in a long time, and I never felt insecure about who I was as an individual human being. The experience was so real, raw, and down-to-earth that I would absolutely love to do it again. The people I met along the way were unique, and we became so close.” Read more.
