Service-Learning Program
Tulane Service-Learning Program
A’s & Aces partners with Tulane University, specifically through the service-learning classes in the Social Innovation & Social Entrepreneurship (SISE) Minor. Tulane students serve as tutors and mentors for A’s & Aces participants, and those with tennis experience also assist our coaches on the courts. These students volunteer in conjunction with a course they are taking, allowing them to apply classroom learning through meaningful, hands-on community engagement.

Service Project:
A’s & Aces refurbishes donated trophies for use in its youth tennis tournaments, giving new life to old awards while celebrating young players' achievements. As part of his senior service project, Leo Congeni—a top tennis player at Jesuit High School—organized a trophy drive and collected over 100 trophies for the organization. These trophies are cleaned, updated with new plates, and awarded to participants, making tournaments more exciting, as well as sustainable. |
