Employees serve the community during OLLU Service Day
About 30 faculty and staff took part in the OLLU Spring Service Day at the Family Service Association KidShare facility. OLLU volunteers painted playrooms and work spaces to freshen up the spaces used by families and children dealing with difficult separation or divorce situations. A special Spurs theme was created in the teens’ room, and a special movie theater theme was designed for the children’s playroom. Following the day of service, participants took part in a reflection led by University Ministry.
The Center for Service-Learning and Volunteerism organizes two employee service days each year. Faculty and staff are allowed to take part in one service day each year without using leave time. The next service day is scheduled for Oct. 17. Details on the service project and sign up will be available closer to the date.
