Prayer Day: RAMServe
2026-04-07 08:00 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | All Campus
🤝 RAMServe – Renewal Around the Midlands
Serve Together. Celebrate Together.Each year, we pause classes and unite for RAMServe — a powerful tradition of giving back. Students, faculty, staff, and volunteers from Columbia College and local organizations head out to 20+ service sites across the city to serve through cleaning, organizing, yard work, painting, and trash pickup.
After the work is done, the celebration begins! Everyone returns to campus for an evening of grilled dinner, inflatable water slides, live music, and lawn games — a well-earned reward for a day of meaningful impact.
This is also considered a Prayer Day: we require that all undergraduate students participate, though all students are welcome. Student workers may not work until 3 pm on Prayer Days.
