More than 100 students came together to give back during the College of Business and Public Administration Service Weekend on April 6 and 7. Student volunteers served over 340 cumulative hours during the two-day event and worked at nine different locations throughout the metro community. Students helped with things such as hunger relief, housing assistance, clothing shelters, food pantry assistance, elderly care, and recovery program relief. They played bingo at Calvin Community Retirement Home, served a meal at The Hope Café, and organized and sorted donations at Encore Thrift Shops. Volunteers also packed over 20,000 meals at Meals from the Heartland. To cap off the weekend, a speaker from the United Way educated participants on food insecurity.
