David Mullins Participates in Marquette Action Program

2012 Mar 22

David Mullins, a sophomore from Appleton, WI, traveled to Joplin, MO, with fellow Marquette University students over spring break as a part of the Marquette Action Program (MAP). During the weeklong service trip, Mullins's group volunteered with the tornado relief efforts.

Since 1977, MAP has offered students the chance to work and interact with people all over the United States. Sponsored by Marquette's Campus Ministry, the trips expose students to aspects of poverty, racism and the lives of the disabled in today's society. Depending on the site, students may be doing anything from assisting in classrooms to preparing meals at homeless shelters to repairing houses devastated by storms. This year, over 180 Marquette volunteers traveled to 21 different sites in 14 different states.
