4 Ways to Get Involved This Week!

April 18, 2017 by Katy Warfield

As the semester comes to a close, the need to complete service hours can be stressful. Here are some community service opportunities happening in the next week that provide great opportunities to serve the Springfield community and address humanitarian issues!

  1. Saturday, April 22nd, volunteer with fellow students at FSL Day of Service! Students will be serving with Dickerson Park Zoo, Farmer’s Market of the Ozarks, Midtown Neighborhood Association, Springfield Botanical Gardens, and Springfield Dream Center from 8am to 1pm. Sign up here.
  2. Friday, April 21st, serve with Boys and Girls Club as they begin to build their new gardens for an after school program! Make sure that you wear weather appropriate clothing and be prepared to get dirty! Sign up located here!
  3. Celebrate Earth Day with Springfield Community Gardens! From 9:00am to 11:00 am on Saturday, April 22nd, at the Meador, Weller, Grant Beach, Delaware, and Brentwood Community Gardens! Follow hyperlinks for sign ups!
  4. Rock N Ribs BBQ Festival is still looking for volunteers for this weekend! There are volunteer slots available from Wednesday, April 19th to Sunday, April 23rd! Sign up here!

Remember, reflection is key to a quality and meaningful service experience. Before leaving your place of service, reflect on what you have done, what it meant, and what you will do differently following your service experience. All bears have the potential to leave their pawprint on Springfield. Making change through service is a sure way to start!
