Service
As part of our dedication to a Jesuit education, Spring Hill College forms men and women in service to others. On the Spring Hill College campus, we follow the example of St. Ignatius of Loyola, who founded the Jesuit order in 1540. He believed that in order to change the world, you must first change yourself. In the Ignatian tradition, we encourage you to think critically, act justly, reflect profoundly, and experience wholly. We offer many service opportunities within the Mobile community and on campus.

Community Service Programs at the Foley Center
The Foley Center coordinates the service work of Spring Hill College students through our partnerships with local nonprofit organizations to provide countless of hours of service each year. Students may work with healthcare providers, special needs organizations, elderly care facilities, education programs for both children and adults and many other programs that provide for the needs of the under served and marginalized in the Mobile community.
One-on-one community service sustained over a semester or a year fosters transformative relationships between our students and the community. The Foley Center is thus a key way that Spring Hill College fulfills its promise to form our students into leaders in learning, faith, justice and service for life.
Our Mission at Work
The Foley Center is committed to forming responsible leaders in service who respond to the demands of justice in solidarity with the entire human family. Towards this mission, the Foley center provides students high impact, community learning experiences, assists faculty in effective service-learning, and cultivates transformative community partnerships.
