Recently opening the second shop in Missouri, owner and store manager April Baker established the Magnolia Soap & Bath Co. with her son because she was always surrounded by their products when she lived in Mississippi. She has been using the products for 5 years now and said she likes them because they don’t contain any toxic or harmful ingredients. “When we found that they were franchising, we thought this would be a business model that the community would appreciate because a lot of the people out here are health conscious and health minded,” Baker said

While volunteering at Anthology Senior Living in Town Center, sophomore Sakhi Lal with her sophomore team members Christina Boniface and Michelle Chen play Halloween Bingo with the elders. Lal said that the reason she started her nonprofit organization, Serving the Seniors (STS), is because she used to volunteer in senior homes and saw how much support they needed. “I used to volunteer at Anthology of Town and Country and I realized that the residents need a lot of support financially. They're pretty sad and depressed there and they feel really trapped. That really got to my heart and I want to get as many people to volunteer at these senior homes to help these elderly people to where they don't feel alone and they feel like they have someone that is there to support them,” Lal said.
