Amelie Gavino: Sisterhood

Hello everyone! My name is Amelie Gavino and I am a Human Physiology major from Palos Verdes, California! I am a media chair for Setons alongside Claire! I love to go on scenic walks, shop til I drop, find the best places to eat and most of all, be by the beach! Being from Southern California, the beach has always been a place of serenity to me. Other than Setons, on campus I am involved in the Club Golf team and the Filipino American Student Union as the Public Relations Chair!  The pillar that resonates with me the most is Sisterhood. I deeply value the bonds formed when women come together to support and empower each other. To me, sisterhood means creating a space where people feel seen, understood and uplifted.

ABOUT US

The Setons of Gonzaga is a service organization composed of 30 amazing women who actively serve the Spokane community under the three pillars of service, sisterhood, and leadership. During the year, Setons participate in monthly service at different organizations throughout Spokane. These services can range anywhere from leaf raking, writing letters and cards, serving at shelters, and so on. Monthly service creates an opportunity for all 30 of us to serve at the same time together. In addition, each week Setons are broken down into smaller groups to perform weekly service at organizations that we work with all semester long. Fall 2023, a few groups worked at the Boys and Girls Club of Spokane and a couple of groups were at the Hutton Settlement Children's Home. 

Additionally, Setons are well known for hosting the annual Charity Ball event where all students on campus are welcome to attend in order to raise money to donate to an organization of our choice. This year we are supporting Sally's House Emergency Foster Care. Essentially, the Setons of Gonzaga create an atmosphere where women can serve the community, support one another, grow in leadership, and gain 29 other sisters while doing so!
