Service traditions are also a prominent part of SFA student life. In addition to MLK Day of Service, SFA students raise more than $20,000 annually for the Children's Miracle Network through the SFA Dance Marathon, and hundreds of Lumberjacks complete service projects in Nacogdoches County during The Big Event in the spring.

Service is also an important part of the centennial celebration as students, faculty, staff and alumni compete in the 100,000 Service Hours for 100 Years contest.

Keep up with each group's total hours and log your own at sfasu.edu/centennial.
