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. Service was the pillar that drove me to join Setons, and I’m so ...

Kaitlyn Anardi: Service

Oh hi! My name is Kaitlyn Mae Anardi. I am from Lake Tapps, WA which is around 30 minutes South of Seattle. I am majoring in Biology with the hopes of going to Dental School once I graduate from Gonzaga. I would also like to consider myself a student-athlete. I play on a coed-boone softball AND volleyball team. I spend most of my time studying; however, my roommates and I like to end each day by watching an episode of Gilmore Girls. I also love going to yoga classes and treating myself to a cute iced beverage (coffee, chai, matcha, tea). I’m thrilled to be starting my sophomore year off as a Seton!

The pillar I am reflecting on is service. I have always tried to be involved in my community. At home, I volunteer at the Auburn Food Bank and I mainly restocked the shelves, organized the pantry, and helped unload donations from cars. Last year, I started to volunteer at the SpokanAnimal, where I would take the dogs waiting to be adopted on walks. I loved both experiences, however, I have discovered an even deeper value in serving my community through Setons. My small group goes to the Boys and Girls Club for a couple of hours each week. I have been able to connect with kids and become a source of positivity in their lives! We play GA-GA ball, make clay creations, and work on homework after school (which also means I have to brush up on my long-division skills). I enjoy every minute I spend doing service here.
