Break A Difference’s (B•A•D) mission is to strategically engage individuals and institutions through service to make positive impacts in communities and on those who serve. As a nonprofit, we accomplish this by engaging corporations in large-scale service projects, preparing skilled leaders to serve on nonprofit boards, expanding the volunteer service capacity for nonprofits, and partnering with organizations to engage college students in week-long immersive service trips, otherwise known as Alternative Breaks.

​

We believe in the power of transformative, intentional, & well-organized volunteer experiences. Every year, we engage over 6,000 volunteers in 300+ projects across 30 cities, delivering resources and expanding the volunteer capacity of community partners who are on the front lines, serving vulnerable populations every day!
