Missouri State's Center for Community Engagement

Welcome back, Bears! 🐻

Join us next Monday at the MLK NAACP March & Program to support Springfield initiatives that inspire change.

CHICAGO SPRING BREAK 2024 (Trip 1/3)
Our Chicago Bear Breaks crew volunteered a total of 176 hours at the Greater Chicago Food Depository, St. James, Nourishing Hope, and the Friendship Center. With a successful trip focused on food insecurity, students were able to make a difference while getting the opportunity to explore the city!

MEMPHIS SPRING BREAK 2024 (trip 1/3)
The Memphis crew served a total of 95 hours at Youth Villages, a state of the art residential facility that houses children at-risk. Outside of immersing themselves in youth education, they had the opportunity to explore the city and visit attractions such as Beale Street, the Grizzlies game, and the Hernado de Soto Bridge.
