MWSU Center for Service

Volunteer Opportunity!

Summer Camp is almost here and this year the children in our programs are heading Around the World, June 22 – June 26.

We're excited to give our kids a week filled with laughter, learning, crafts, games, food, music, and fun adventures as we "travel" to different countries without ever leaving St. Joe.

To help make this adventure take off, we are looking for: Volunteers (a couple of hours or the whole week!)
- Individually wrapped snacks
- Drinks with less sugar or zero sugar options
- Small toys, Candy, and sugar free candy for piñatas
- Craft Supplies: • Googly eyes • Pipe cleaners • Construction paper • Markers and colored pencils • Brown paper lunch bags • Paper cups

Thank you for always supporting the children and families we serve. If you'd like to donate or volunteer, please reach out or stop by the YWCA!

First impressions matter, and if you ask us, MoWest is looking top notch!

A huge thank-you to our amazing staff and student ambassadors who spent the afternoon sprucing up campus ahead of Friday's first GO (Griffon Orientation) session of the summer!

From pulling weeds and picking up litter to making sure every corner of campus is ready to impress, their hard work is helping us roll out the red carpet for our newest Griffons and their families.

We can't wait to welcome them to campus! Let's GO! 🖤💛

🖤💛 Congrats, Jordon! We're proud of your passion and the impact you are making in the healthcare field.

We’re proud to recognize Jordon Anderson as the 2026 recipient of both the Mary Alice Hartigan Scholarship and the Mary Ann Reinert Scholarship.

These scholarships support individuals pursuing careers in nursing and surgical services, with a shared emphasis on advancing excellence in surgical care and continued professional growth.

Jordon’s dedication to this field reflects the legacy behind both of these honors, and we’re proud to support this next step in the journey.

Congratulations, Jordon, we’re excited to see the impact you’ll make!

Welcome to campus, St. Joseph Safety & Health Council and friends! Wishing you all a great first day of training and many safe miles ahead!

🚗🎉 Today marks the FIRST DAY of our first Driver’s Education session, and we couldn’t be more excited!

We’re looking forward to helping students build safe driving skills, confidence behind the wheel, and lifelong habits that will keep them and others safe on the road.

A huge thank you to our instructors, community partners, families, and students for making this program possible. We can’t wait to kick off another great summer of learning, growth, and safe driving!

Here’s to new experiences, new drivers, and a safe journey ahead! 🛑🚦💛

Take a look at the incredible year of service and impact our campus has had on St. Joseph and surrounding communities!

This school year, we saw a 14% increase in students earning service-learning credit, hosted 8 service events through the Center for Service, participated in numerous service activities with community partners, and witnessed countless additional acts of service led by academic departments, athletics, and student organizations across campus.

We are incredibly proud of our entire Griffon family for showing such kindness, compassion, and commitment to making the communities we call home a better place for all.

Let's see what we can do next year!
