Dear Servant Leaders,
I am only one, but I am one: I cannot do everything but I can do something What I can do, I ought to do And what I ought to do By the grace of God, I will do.
-Helen Keller
I have the wonderful job of leading a group who makes positive things happen in Greenville each and every day. We talk very much at Furman about the bubble that surrounds us, that keeps us in, and isolates us from the outside world. But Heller exists solely to bridge the gap between Furman and our surrounding community. It is in the unique efforts of collaboration and service-driven ingenuity that we thrive. Our motive is simple - make a lasting impact on the lives of individuals, one act of service at a time. From day-long extravaganzas such as the long-time favorite May Day Play Day and its reincarnation as Furman Fall Fest, to working one-on-one with children with disabilities, to sending groups of students into jails to help gather testimonies for an over-burdened juvenile defenders office, our service corps is particularly qualified to break down barriers and establish a positive presence of college students in the larger community. College is about trying new things. Try making an impact. Try Heller Service Corps.
Best Wishes,
Andrew Barnhill
Student Director
