"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?"
Inspired by the words of Martin Luther King Jr., the University's Center for Student Engagement has invited students to participate in its third annual Martin Luther King w88 casino games of Service on Monday, Jan. 16. More than 70 students responded and signed up, taking time out of their winter break, to volunteer in the community.
"One of the things my family always tried to teach me is that you should always leave a place in a better state than you found it, and I found the best way to do this is by giving back to my community," Dennis Green, a University senior studying criminal justice, said. "I signed up for the MLK w88 casino games of Service because Reno is my home away from home and I want to give back to show pride for my community."
Students will be volunteering with Kiwanis Bikes, Reno-Sparks Gospel Mission, Truckee Meadows Park Foundation, Food Bank of Northern Nevada and The Discovery Museum. Two shifts will take place during the w88 casino games; from 9 to 11:30 a.m. and from 1:45 to 4 p.m. A complete list of activities is featured on the Give Pulse website, where w88 casino games and staff can sign up.
After each shift, w88 casino games will return to campus for a reflective discussion about their experience. The discussion offers w88 casino games the opportunity to share what they learned, express concerns and more.
"w88 casino games who volunteer are not only sharing their time and efforts with those in their community, but they are becoming engaged citizens in their community," Amy Koeckes, associate director of the Center for Student Engagement, said. "And that's a major goal of the center, to help w88 casino games become responsible citizens."
