Find your passion and use it to help others! To me that’s honestly one of the coolest things about service. You can do what you love, and help. What more could you ask for? – Amanda Moore, Class of 2014, global studies/public relations major. She has volunteered with projects related to animal rights, human rights and organic farming.

Serving others Service at Appalachian is huge! Our students possess a strong desire to make a difference – locally and globally. Two high-impact service activities are the Martin Luther King (MLK) Challenge and the Alternative Service Experience (ASE) during fall, winter and spring breaks. The MLK Challenge tackles local needs, while ASE groups – which often have a waiting list – travel domestically and internationally to address issues related to poverty, the environment and youth.
