Campus Corps All-Star Member: Samantha Springer from UM-Western

Samantha Springer is a rock star volunteer for the community of Dillon, MT. She came to the campus degree seeking; in the meantime she seeks the honor of volunteering and making her “new” community a better place to live. She explains that joining Campus Corps has provided her with the connections she needed to become active in the community, and to connect with other students, and residents of the Dillon area. She currently serves at the Beaverhead County Museum where there are many duties that keep her busy while volunteering. She assists the other museum volunteers by utilizing her young technologically savvy skills, but also can get lost in a project learning facts of the several historical displays at the museum. Samantha currently is helping centralize the database of all items at the museum.
Not only does the young lady go above and beyond at the local museum, you can find her smiley face at most of the community projects that the UM Western Campus Corps team gets involved in. Not only does she get herself engaged in the community, her volunteerism shines through when she continually recruits volunteers to help with our various projects. Rain or shine, sleep deprived or not Samantha will be there willing and anxious to serve to the community that will be her home for the next 4 years, while seeking a double major in elementary education and human and political social sciences. Watch out Hillary we may have our first female president blooming on the campus of The University of Montana Western.
