Miela Hurst

Community Service Chair, Fall 2022

 

My name is Miela (me-ella) Hurst and I am honored to return from studying abroad in Ireland to serve as Delta's Community Service Chair this fall. One thing I learned while abroad is that you gain valuable perspective through exposing yourself to diverse groups, activities and ideas.

 

In Delta, we pride ourselves on the principle of unity through diversity. Diversity does not just apply to our majors and backgrounds, but also to our extracurriculars. I want to demonstrate that our impact in the Redlands community is just as multifaceted as our organization. My initiative to expand Delta's service opportunities is in conjunction with our continued partnership with Redlands Family Service Association.

 

I belive that community servicve is not only an opportunity to amplify change in the Redlands area, but also to create and strengthen bonds between our sisters as well as those they encounter while volunteering. While the aim of service is to benefit the community, that does not exclude our sisters from gaining experience, knowledge and/or friends through the process.

 

I want all our sisters to be proud of the uniqueness they bring to our organization; our service impact should reflect that diversity. I also want to demonstrate the personal benefits of volunteering in the Redlands community.

 

I look forward to devoting my skills learned previously as Panhellenic Community Service Chair toward inspriring and leading community service efforts in Delta.
