Missouri Western students participated in the Bunk Bed Build event at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas in February. Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a national organization who builds beds for kids who do not have one. This year the goal was to build fifty beds with about 150 volunteers. The lumber was donated by a local building supply company. Students came from all over northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri with students from 11-18-year-old youth and college students from Benedictine College and Missouri Western State University. Missouri Western participants included Craig Spilker, Hosanna Moore, Wes Moore and Dr. Dennis Merritt.
