Do Good. Make a Difference.

As part of our community of kind-hearted future leaders, you’ll change lives. Along the way, you’ll build your character and develop skills. Start at our Institute for Leadership and Service, which stirs in you a greater sense of purpose through guest speakers, summer fellowships, reflection opportunities, and related coursework. From there, decide what parts of the world could use your compassion — then get out there and let it shine.

Adjacent to campus, the St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Student Center hosts Café Manna, a weekly soup kitchen outreach ministry. Every week, Valpo students take time out of their busy schedules to serve others, stocking cans and boxes in the kitchen or serving a hot meal and dessert to guests. Community outreach. It’s a Valpo thing.
