Annemarie Stanga: Leadership

 Hi! My name is Annemarie and I am from Denver, Colorado. I am majoring in Biochemistry and Spanish and minoring in Art History on a pre-med track. I am also a student ambassador and doing research on campus. In my free time, I love being in the mountains and doing everything outside, especially hiking! I also enjoy traveling and spending time with my family. My favorite thing about going to school in the Pacific Northwest is the coffee scene, so I'm always up for visiting a new coffee shop! One of our pillars as Setons is leadership. Leadership can take on many forms, and being a Seton means growing in both individual and communal leadership styles. By coordinating service events as one of our service chairs or by inviting a sister out for a coffee date, I have learned how to take initiative and connect with others. being a Setons has allowed me to grow in my own confidence while being surrounded by the most supportive sisters!

Jessie Stenberg- Service

Hi there!
My name is Jessie Stenberg and I am an Accounting and finance major. I want to share with you my experience and involvement with Setons this year. Focusing on service, leadership, and sisterhood, Setons has the opportunity to serve the Spokane community while bonding with one another and growing as stronger individuals.

Every Wednesday, I get the Pleasure of serving with the amazing organization, Blessings Under the Bridge. This organization serve the Spokane community by providing hope to the homeless community. Blessings Under the Bridge serves over 350 individuals each week, offering a meal, desserts, groceries, cold and hot beverages, treats, pet food, shoes, clothing, hygiene products, and more. It is incredible to see how many donations Blessings Under the Bridge receives and how blessed the homeless population is to receive these donations.
Some nights of service have been very cold, and it makes me thankful for how blessed I am to call a warm place to call home. The homeless population is forced to endure the cold winter nights without a place to go. Blessings Under the Bridge helps to provide warm winter clothes, hats, and mittens. Volunteering with Blessings shows how important it is to help the community in any way possible because even small donations help.

I am so blessed to have the opportunity to help the community grow and also see myself grow as an individual and reflect on my experiences. Being able to serve the Spokane community while growing closer with this group of girls has brought me amazing new friends. Setons has been such a light in my life this fall, I have extremely enjoyed being involved in Setons and cannot wait for the rest of the year!
