— Connect Drake students to the community and recruit volunteers to fulfill community needs
— Educate the campus on meaningful service and social issues
— Engage students in reflection
— Raise awareness of community engaged learning and its impact on Drake students and the community
— Plan and organize events and opportunities to achieve these goals
