SPU Students Start New School Year Volunteering in Pioneer Square

Founded in 1891, Seattle Pacific University is a premier Christian university that equips people to engage the culture and change the world. Its comprehensive academic program serves 4,000 undergraduate and graduate students.

Nearly 800 freshmen and transfer students at SPU will experience their first day of college off campus — fixing up houses, removing graffiti, cleaning up parks, and countless other projects throughout Seattle. This annual community service orientation called “CityQuest” is one way students live out the SPU mission of “engaging the culture and changing the world.”

On Saturday, September 25, from 10:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. SPU students and staff will be at the Union Gospel Mission Men’s Shelter in Pioneer Square where they will be cleaning and organizing within the shelter and serving lunch to homeless guests.

CityQuest brings together students, faculty, staff, administrators, and alumni to work in more than 30 different community service projects throughout Seattle. For more information on Seattle Pacific University’s CityQuest in your neighborhood, call SPU’s news and media relations manager Tracy Norlen at 206-281-2977.
