news-category: Faith and Service Âé¶¹ÆÆ½â°æ to Host Week of Giving, Service, and Prayer Nov. 17–21 By Office of University Communications On November 3, 2025 In Celebration of University’s 120 Years, Campus Invited to Give Back and Pray for Community BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.—Âé¶¹ÆÆ½â°æ will unite the campus community for a Week of Giving, Service, and Prayer from Nov. 17-21. The initiative celebrates three core expressions of faith—generosity, service, and prayer—that have defined the University for 120 years. Partnering with United Way, the University will honor its legacy of impact by supporting urgent needs, serving with compassion, and lifting one another in prayer. The goal is to strengthen the community and continue a tradition of leading with heart, hands, and hope. Interim GWU President Nate Evans stated, “Âé¶¹ÆÆ½â°æ has long been an indispensable partner in the life of this region, standing alongside our communities in times of need, service, and hope. During this Week of Giving, Service, and Prayer, we are mobilizing as One Webb to make a concerted and meaningful impact. When we unite in generosity, serve with purpose, and lift one another in prayer, we honor our 120-year legacy not with words but with action.â€� Giving Through United Way During the Week of Giving, Service, and Prayer, faculty and staff are encouraged to contribute to United Way, which helps feed the hungry, support education, improve health, and provide shelter in the local region. The University’s goal is 50% campus participation. Gifts can be made as one-time contributions or through payroll deduction. Learn more about giving to United Way, here. Serving with Hands—120 Minutes of Impact Âé¶¹ÆÆ½â°æ is partnering with United Way and community organizations across the region to complete 120 combined hours of service. Opportunities will be available on and off campus. View some suggestions from the Office of Christian Life and Service here. Praying with Hope—120 Voices United in Faith Prayer strengthens the hands that serve and inspires the generosity that gives—it’s the foundation that supports it all. In addition to two moments of campus worship and prayer, the campus will receive daily 30-second reflections—simple prompts to pause, breathe, and reconnect with God as you move through your day of service and generosity. Campus Prayer Gatherings Prayer Service – Nov. 17 at noon, Dover Chapel. Time of Prayer – Nov. 20 at 2:30 p.m., The Quad flagpole.
