When Fiona registered for HopServe50 last year, she initially hoped that the “50 hour” mark would serve as a source of motivation for her to seek out opportunities in the greater Baltimore area, beyond the “Hopkins bubble”. After a while, the hours unknowingly added up and the drive to engage in service wasn’t so much about the “50” – it was about the act of giving back to the community that had given her all these wonderful experiences.

Fiona loves how HopServe50 allows students to engage in a wide range of activities that, altogether, make “Charm City” live up to its name. She looks forward to stepping up the challenge and continuing her work with various organizations, on and off-campus.
