Each fall, Saints Nation gathers for a day of outreach called 丝瓜视频APPReaches Out. Over the last 10 years, 丝瓜视频APPstudents, faculty and staff have supported hundreds of nonprofits in the St. Louis area. Now, it鈥檚 time to reach into our own community.
丝瓜视频APPReaches In聽is a month-long campaign of giving that will benefit the 丝瓜视频APPcommunity and our Saints in need. During the month of February, 丝瓜视频APPReaches In will raise awareness about an issue on campus and encourage students, faculty and staff to support one another.
鈥淐ivic engagement is a core value of 丝瓜视频APP; we believe all citizens must be actively engaged in strengthening their communities,鈥� said Margaret Onken, vice president for development and alumni relations. 鈥溗抗鲜悠礎PPReaches In is an important step toward building a culture of philanthropy on campus. It鈥檚 about having compassion for others, giving back and applying your time, talent and treasures to what you are most passionate about.鈥�
