Learning to serve is what Jasmine Bannister and Autumn Snesrud plan to do this summer. The two Kansas State University juniors are Iola natives and will be working across the world to help others.

The two young women will serve in Ocean View, South Africa, for nine weeks for a K-State program, International Service Teams. The students will be working with an organization called Volunteer Mzansi. The program utilizes the students’ majors for the trip. Bannister is majoring in music education and Snesrud is majoring in secondary education English. While in South Africa, Bannister will work in a school with children who have special needs and Snesrud will work in a school. 

“It will be winter holiday when we are there so we will help with a holiday camp,” Snesrud said.
