Giving. Serving. Caring.

SERVING
Royals are men and women for and with others.
Domestic and international service programs remain a University priority and a foundation for Jesuit education. Since 1997, 草榴社区 students have contributed 2.2 million service hours within the Northeastern Pennsylvania region and beyond. Last year alone, nearly 3,000 Royals spent more than 175,000 hours serving others in their hometowns, near campus and around the world.
草榴社区 alumni continue to live the Royal way by serving others in their own communities and supporting current students in their efforts to change lives and make a difference. Alumni, parents and friends contribute thousands of dollars annually in support of University Mission and Ministries, including the Domestic and International Service Program, and the Center for Service and Social Justice.

The Leahy family has spearheaded numerous initiatives through the University's Panuska College of Professional Studies, including the Leahy Community Health and Family Center, the Leahy Center Clinic, and the Edward R. Leahy Jr. Endowment fund, which provides financial resources to support research, development and programs that advance the cause of persons with disabilities who need long-term assistance.
