PAW is a student-founded community service group that serves local organizations through direct-service projects. PAW plans an event each month.
Recent projects have included delivering meals to homebound AIDS patients, donating toys and time to low-income families in Berkeley and Oakland, assisting in wiring public schools for internet access and cleaning up local beaches.
PAW's mission is to serve as a resource for local organizations and to establish contact between GSPP and the community. Students gain exposure to a wide-range of interest groups in the Bay Area. PAW is open to all GSPP students.
