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. Growing up in Girl Scouts allowed me to recognize the importance of helping those in my community from an early age and has ultimately led me to be the person I am today.

Sophia Borella- Service


Hi everyone, my name is Sophia Borella and I am from Mountain View, California. I am a nursing major here at Gonzaga and love being involved in the Setons. Club! My family consists of my Mom and Dad, my twin sister Juliette, and my two dogs Milo and Lucy. In my free time I love spending time with friends, exercising, and finding new brands of coffee to try (Clark’s Fork oat milk latte is my go-to!).

In the Setons club, I personally love the service pillar and the amazing opportunities it has to offer. Last semester I volunteered at the North Town Girl and Boys club and spent with kindergarteners. While spending most of my time going to classes and studying in the library, service offered me the perfect outlet I needed to find more balance. I formed many deep connections with the children just by coloring pictures and playing basketball. Many of the children opened up to me about their home life situations. It brought an immense amount of perceptive into my life knowing the struggles their families face. Since this service location was off campus, it allowed me to understand the Spokane community outside of Gonzaga. Ultimately, completing service every week caused me to become more grateful for the privileges I have in my own life. I wish to continue growing together with my fellow sisters and grow as an induvial through service experiences.
