The Tuskegee University Social Work Student Alliance (SWSA) has a long proud history of volunteer service. Our volunteers are working to meet the needs of their neighborhoods and the community by Fair in the Square, Afterschool Mentoring Program, Walking with the Wise, Tuskegee Housing Authority Playground Advocacy Project, Cell Phone Drive for Battered Women, and the YMCA Halloween Party.
In recognition of these outstanding achievements, The Social Work Student Alliance (SWSA) is proud to announce the availability of the VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD, a prestigious national honor offered in recognition of volunteer commitment. Established in 2003, this new AWARD is given by the President of the United States and honors individuals, families and groups who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service over the course of 12 months.
The Tuskegee University Social Work Student Alliance (SWSA) has teamed with hundreds of organizations and businesses across the country to deliver this Award to our most outstanding volunteers.

"Fair in the Square" April 2005
On Saturday April 16, 2005 the Social Work Student Alliance hosted “The Fair in the Square” event in downtown Tuskegee. More that 500 people attended the event! Children from Tuskegee schools and day care centers were treated to games, arts and crafts and fun stuff! Based on the number of people who attended the event it clearly shows that “family oriented” events in our community are much needed. As a macro-level community service project it shows what Tuskegee University Department of Social Work students can do when they set their minds to it. This event would not have been the success that it was were it not for the efforts of all students who participated.

Congratulations to the Tuskegee University Department of Social Work Student Alliance on the “Fair in the Square” event. A special thanks goes to all the students who participated in the event as Volunteers!
A special thanks goes to all the residents of the community who came out for the event with their children, families and friends! A very special thank you goes to all the local Tuskegee business who provided services and support! And a special thanks to Pamela Davis (Biology Major), who volunteered her time, friends and energy!
