We are Xers who care and understand that volunteer work offers an opportunity for our student, staff, faculty, alumni and communities to engage in activities that affect the common good of society. Through our community work, we gain valuable skills, understanding, and enhance the communities that we reside within.
The Social Responsibility Committee is a diverse group of individuals throughout INX Academies that collaborate with neighboring community representatives and organizations. SRC exists to advance positive relations and to maintain consistent communication between the INX Academies and its communities. As a part of giving back, INX Academy is offering scholarships to designated non-profit partners and their communities in need.
Be the change in the world you’d like to see, be a X’er that Cares!
