Give Your 10 is an initiative to encourage Auburn students to engage in service opportunities on campus and beyond. Here at Auburn we “believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.” Give Your 10 challenges Auburn students to give 10 hours of their time to serve others!
In 2014, this inaugural program allowed students to complete a series of StrengthsQuest-based workshops geared towards leadership development through the use of strengths signature themes. Over 200 individual participants completed the training during the 2014-2015 academic year. Participants ranged from individuals to groups, teams and classes. Participating groups including the Auburn University Equestrian Team, the Student Government Executive team, and the Health and Wellness learning community benefitted from this valuable training.
Leadership Small Groups provide an opportunity for freshmen to learn from current student leaders and discuss important leadership topics in a fun and relaxed environment. Small groups of 10-15 freshman students will be placed with a senior student leader who has experience serving in various roles and campus organizations. Applications will be available on AUinvolve in August!
The Involvement Ambassadors serve as a resource for any student or student organization seeking assistance in finding opportunities for involvement. The Involvement Ambassadors provide one-on-one consultations with students as well as workshops for larger groups. And of course, we put on the Involvement Awards in the spring.
