COMMUNITY SERVICE

Liberty University student-athletes continued to give their time and efforts in demonstrating love and care by serving the local community. Using the NCAA Athletics platform, Liberty’s studentathletes make a difference in the lives of individuals of all ages in both the public and private sectors. “Love. Care. Serve.” is the promise Liberty student-athletes have for each other and the Lynchburg community with the goals of demonstrating love, caring for those in need, and serving with a grateful heart.

LIBERTY ATHLETICS PARTICIPATES IN EARLY FALL COMMUNITY SERVICE INITIATIVES

Liberty Flames student-athletes began the 2022-23 school year by participating in Liberty Student-Athlete Development initiatives, programming, community service, and outreach. Each September, Liberty Athletics teams raise funds for the Dollar Makes A Difference (DMAD) Campaign. This year, student-athletes raised $8,732.14 for the cause. The Liberty women’s basketball team raised the most money for the first time, collecting $1,393. Additionally, 100 percent of Liberty Athletics teams reached their goal this year for the first time. Since Dollar Makes A Difference was established in 2010, NCAA Division I student-athletes at Liberty have raised over $74,000 for Lynchburg City and surrounding area schools. The funds have been used to purchase glue sticks, markers, crayons, scissors, paper, and other highly requested school supplies to help meet the needs of both students and teachers. This year, in addition to providing school supplies to elementary schools located in Lynchburg and surrounding areas, Liberty student-athletes helped specific teachers meet their classroom needs. Liberty Student-Athlete Development launched its SHERO initiative, a female empowerment program, with a kickoff event on Sept. 20 on the third floor of Carter Tower. A total of 175 Liberty Flames female student-athletes attended the first event and heard from Leeana Tankersley — writer, artist, mother, and storyteller. Throughout the semester, female student-athletes will have the opportunity to hear from other mentors. A total of 20 SHEROs, both on and off campus, are available to provide leadership, mentorship, connection, and community to female Flames. On Sept. 24, 75 student-athletes volunteered at the 48th annual Virginia 10 Miler, supporting runners and walkers during the race. Liberty’s ongoing initiatives in October include Trick Or Treat So Others Can Eat, Mental Health Week, Hilinski’s Hope, a student-athlete mental health initiative, and continuing to put together “Blessing Bags” for the Lynchburg Daily Bread.
