Elizabeth Persinger

Sophomore | History

“Songfest this past

weekend. It was great

to see everyone come

together and raise money

for children with cancer.”

Amanda Bidell Junior | Early

Childhood Education

“Haven of Rest. I wrote

messages to children who

may not always hear what

I told them. It made my

day to know I made each

child feel special.”

Karley Kusan

Junior | Intervention

Specialist

“Akron Snow Angels.

It was really sad, yet

happy at the same time.

Gathering meals for

those who go without

[them] humbled me

and reminded me to

appreciate what I have.”

Dwayne Smith

Freshman | Athletic

Training

“A local summer camp.

It was a lot of fun — and

getting to bond closely

with children from all

kinds of backgrounds felt

great.”

Nicholas Gallimore

Junior | Computer

Science

“The Soap Box Derby.

I loved working with

children and helping

them build cars. To see

their faces light up made

my day.”
