Member Center:
Dozens of students from New England are spending their spring break this week in Southwest Virginia. But, they're not here for a week of of fun-in-the-sun, but for a week of work-in-the-community.
The group is part of a program at Boston College, where students give up their spring break to help communities in need. They'll spend the entire week fixing up more than a dozen homes in the Hollins area.
The students host fundraisers throughout the year to help pay for their trip.
