Programs within the Department

Servants of All
Main article: Servant of All

Servants of All is a program to encourage our members to participate in philanthropic activities outside of our organization. Members will receive recognition for donating money/goods, volunteering their time, and doing other charity work in their communities. This is currently being worked on by the Planning Committee and will later be run by the Servant of All Staff.


The Robert Jordan Memorial Scholarship
Main article: Robert Jordan Memorial Scholarship

The Annual Robert Jordan Memorial Scholarship is awarded each Summer to two eligible students. The application process is facilitated by the Director of Outreach. The scholarship amount varies annually between $250 and $1,000 USD.


Fundraisers
Main article: Maintaining the Tower Fundraiser

The Maintaining the Tower fundraiser is held annually in the summer, and it is the main fundraiser within TarValon.Net. It was formerly called the Annual Fundraiser and the Summer Fundraiser but in 2014 the name was officially changed to Maintaining the Tower. This annual fundraiser is aimed to cover the operational expenses of the community, fund the Robert Jordan Memorial Scholarship, and ensure our ability to lock in the best pricing for future events. It is the monetary support that keeps our community functioning.

Fundraiser themes:

  • 2016 Pugs vs. Kittens
  • 2015 .GIF Off
