Monday, January 15 was not just a day off from class. It was a great day for serving!
This year over 150 students, faculty, and staff participated in 10 service projects all over Greenville County. We honored the legacy of Dr. King by serving our community with partner organizations, reaching beyond ourselves to renovate houses, paint classrooms, deliver meals, and give away over 40,000 pounds of sweet potatoes. To our community partners - many thanks for letting us join your efforts to be a blessing to our community, and to the BJU student leaders who helped set up each project - you all did an incredible job!
Thank you for making MLK Service Day a great day for BJU and the greater Greenville area!
