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.

Aiva McCargo: Service

          

        Hi everyone! My name is Aiva and I am a Business major from Bothell, Washington. My hobbies include baking, watching movies, fitness, and hanging out with friends and family. I am the youngest of three girls, so I am very lucky to have two wonderful older sisters. My family and I also have a french bulldog named Kiwi, who is my pride and joy. Two things I am really looking forward to is spending Thanksgiving with my family and also the Setons retreat coming up in January.


        The pillar I chose to share about is service. I work off-campus for Second Harvest, which is a non-profit hunger relief organization that serves 26 counties and feeds 55,000 people weekly. My job allows me to work closely with the volunteers of Second Harvest, many of whom are regulars that devote more than ten hours weekly to helping our organization. This has been an incredibly impactful experience for me and in all my years of service I had never before encountered such kind-hearted and selfless people. The service I do every week for Setons at CAPA is always a highlight of my week and something I look forward to. The girls in my group that I have gotten to know well are incredible women with passion for serving others. These experiences have helped me grow as a person and expand my own heart for service. I am so grateful to have had these experiences and I look forward to continuing growing as both a person and in my ability to serve my community.
