THE ARRUPE SOCIETY

THE RESPONSE

The Aruppe Society is essential to Xavier's commitment to justice. Throughout the year we are beginning to engage in legislative advocacy, combat homelessness and hunger, and educate students on what true justice is.

Experiencing what poverty and injustice is on a first hand basis, causes students to be soddened with a drive for justice. Hence the many service trips to El Salvador, Mexico, and New Orleans.
