DURHAM, N.C. – Twenty student-athletes from both Duke and Stanford are set to represent the Rubenstein-Bing Student-Athlete Civic Engagement (ACE) Program this summer. Now in its fourth year, the program provides one-time funding for student-athletes to engage in a three-week international service project, and the first of four overseas initiatives will begin June 15.
During the application process, student-athletes from each institution selected one of four international sites – Vietnam, South Africa, China or Peru, and each location provides a unique service-based focus.
For the summer of 2019, 40 student-athletes have been accepted into programs located in China, South Africa, Vietnam and, for the first time this year, Peru.
