Austin College getting ready for 'Great Day of Service'

Hundreds of Austin College students will disperse across Texoma for the annual Great Day of Service.

The event brings together numerous campus organizations.

They'll volunteer at nearly 50 different non-profit organizations.

Volunteer sites include Hannah's Horseshoes for Hope and Beacon Hill Nursing Home.

Co-Chair Naureen Dharini said the best part is inspiring service in new Austin College students.

"I was sort of new, and once the idea of the service event being over, I was like 'oh I really like doing something like this, maybe after this day I can go and help somebody else,'" she said.

Dharini said this is the 15th year they've done this. The events starts at 8:30 tomorrow morning.
