Eleanor Johnson: Service

Hi! My name is Eleanor Johnson, and I am from Snohomish, Washington. I am majoring in Accounting and Business Administration with a concentration in Management Information Systems and have a minor in dance. Outside of class I work with Campus Kitchens, a program on campus that takes leftover food from campus dining to cook warm meals that are then served to Gonzaga Family Haven and O’Malley Senior Center. Along with Setons I am apart of Women in Business, Beta Alpha Psi, and the involved in the Gonzaga dance program. In my free time I like to read, get coffee, take workout classes, and watch Gilmore Girls.   I joined Girl Scouts in first grade and ever since, Service has been extremely important to me and something I strive to keep a part of my life.

Ryan Songey: Dance Marathon

As a member of Knights of Gonzaga we assist at many charity events throughout the year. This past weekend we assisted at the Dance Marathon which is a charity event supporting the local children’s hospital in Spokane. It was an amazing event to be apart of and witness. Multiple families went up on stage to share their journey at the children’s hospital. I was amazed at the strength and hope that each patient showed. The families shared how grateful they were for the money raised which made their experience more comfortable during their time at the hospital. It was quite an emotional sight when the final amount that was revealed to the crowd. The Dance Marathon team’s goal was to raise $65,000 this year, and they raised over $76,000. I was honored to witness the reveal and see the impact it made on the families present. This is an event I hope to attend and support more in the future. I am very glad the Knight and Setons were able to help out with such an amazing and impactful event.
