Summer Volunteers Conference
June 14-20 and July 12-18
Volunteers combine an inexpensive family vacation with helpful service on campus. The work benefits the school in many ways.

Each year, volunteers help with several key needs. Some work requires professional skills, such as plumbers, electricians, carpenters, and roofers. Other work needs simply a willing spirit eager to serve.
