Description

SMU students give back to the local Dallas community annually through individual projects and campus-wide Days of Service initiatives. In order to best support SMU students in their endeavors to serve the Dallas community together, we need the funds to partner with non-profits and provide students with meaningful community service opportunities. These events have generated a significant increase in popularity among the student body with hundreds of students regularly participating in these events in recent years. Your contribution will help us work toward adequate resources for supplies, transportation, and other costs associated with giving back to the local community through group volunteer events. Recent projects students have completed include:

  • Serving 200 families Thanksgiving meals
  • Repairing and constructing furniture for new homes
  • Organizing, sorting, and assembling items for a homeless shelter
  • Painting and sprucing up facilities at a local animal rescue organization

“One way to incorporate service into your daily life is to think of people who need something from you as your equals instead of lesser, and today gave us an opportunity to live that out.”
— Connor Boltman
