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.

Emmeline Penn - Service


    Hi there! My name is Emmeline Penn, and I am a Psychology major with a Business minor here at Gonzaga. I am from Mercer Island, WA which is about 15 minutes outside of Seattle. In my free time, I love to hang out with my friends, go boating, try new foods, and watch movies. 
    Out of the three pillars of Setons, this year's service made the biggest impact on me. I was extremely lucky to get the opportunity to work with kids through Transitions Living Center every week. It did not take long to build an unbreakable bond with each child there, and seeing their faces light up every time we walked in was so special. We would play with the kids, make them food, help them with homework, and just talk. Despite the moods or emotions of the kids that day, it was always the most rewarding feeling. There is no feeling like making an upset kid smile. I am very thankful for Setons and TLC for this opportunity to work with them, it truly has been life-changing.
