1 minute of September in Dingle. 🇮🇪
We know - it’s longer than our usual videos. But there was too much to leave out!
From classes and field trips to beach trips, dancing, adventures, new friendships and everything in between... here’s a little look at what our students got up to during their first month in Dingle.
This is studying abroad. 💚
A huge thank you to all the students who shared their photos and videos with us! #SHUDingle #SacredHeartUniversity #StudyAbroad #Dingle #Fall

This month at ReachOut, we’re celebrating the importance of supporting older adults in living healthy, connected, and meaningful lives. From staying physically active and maintaining healthy habits to nurturing relationships and finding opportunities for purpose and connection, there are many ways to support well-being at every stage of life.

At ReachOut, we’re especially grateful for the connections between generations. Whether it’s a weekly phone call, sharing a story, learning something new, or simply spending time together, meaningful connection can make a difference.

This Healthy Aging Month, let’s celebrate the wisdom, experiences, and contributions of older adults—and continue building communities where everyone can thrive at every age. 🤍
