A day of service
Millikin University’s local alumni and friends and their families are invited to participate in a special service project with the Decatur Boys and Girls Club from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., Saturday, May 1, on the Millikin campus. The event is cosponsored by the Millikin University Alumni Association and the student-alumni group, Milli-STAT (Students Today, Alumni Tomorrow) and is held in conjunction with Millikin’s annual Founder’s Day celebration. 

Sixty youth ages 7 -17 from the Boys and Girls Club are scheduled to come to campus that afternoon to participate in activities specially planned by Millikin student organizations, including games, relays, sports activities, crafts, refreshments and more.

Alumni and friends and their families can both assist and enjoy the fun. Adults are needed as volunteer assistants to work with Millikin students in charge of the various activities, and children age 7-17 are invited to join in activities with the youth from the Boys and Girls Club.

“We ask our alumni and friends to help us serve our community to make a day of fun for others –including their own families,” says Jeff Jamison '83, president of Millikin’s Alumni Association. “We look forward to them joining us for this special May Day activity."

All participants should report to the patio area north of Richards Treat University Center at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, May 1. Guest parking will be available in the parking lot just north of Mills Hall.

Alumni who live in other parts of the country are encouraged to participate in this Millikin Day of Service by volunteering to work with the youth in their area.
