"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."- Anne Frank

Augustana College is committed to providing an education that will provoke a passion in students to serve the others. As a college of the Church, we affirm that wholeness includes reaching out to others.

The Volunteer Services Office assists students, faculty and staff by providing access to service projects in the local community. The projects vary from mentoring children and adopting grandparents to hosting food drives and serving meals to the homeless. Our goal to challenge students to frequently serve the community in ways that challenge one to develop lifelong habits of serving others.

    Second Chance Rescue Center is currently creating a new room for our spayed/neutered cats, called the "Kitty Cottage". The room will be cage free, so the cats can roam the room at their leisure without the restraints of being caged. They will have a loft and stairs to climb, along with "Kitty Condos" for them to play in. What I am looking for is an artist interested in painting a mural on the walls of this room, say with trees and grass, bugs, mice playing, etc., to make the room more appealing.
