Northeastern University Athletics has created a culture of service. It is our goal to continue to support the organizations and young people in our neighborhood as well as provide positive mentorship and opportunities for underprivileged populations. Through our work in the past, teams, coaches and individuals have been involved in group work, speaking events and even actions with a cause. Each team has a service captain and therefore, is able to speak for the group and organize the team with various events and projects throughout the year. Our ‘Athletes in Service’ captains are trained by Sport in Society to learn about the obstacles urban youth face today and ensure the teams are providing positive mentorship and engagement in their work with the community. Northeastern Huskies take pride in our work and hope to continue increased partnerships in the months to come.
