[William Jewell College]

Community Service Honor Roll
Jewell has been named to the 2012 President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll with Distinction, the highest federal recognition a college or university can receive for its commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement. Jewell was recognized for its strong institutional commitment to service and compelling campus-community partnerships that produce measurable results.

 

Faculty, staff and students contributed more than 40,000 hours of community service during the 2010-2011 academic year. Among William Jewell service projects were the Serve & Celebrate, SIFE projects on financial literacy and environmental sustainability, and the Matthew 25 home repair project in Kansas City’s urban core.
