Beavers Without Borders

Beavers Without Borders "To go fast, go alone. To go far, go together." Our goal here is simple, but our drive to achieve it is intense. Follow us on our up and coming journeys.

Beavers without Borders is an organization developed by former student athletes and the Department of Athletics at Oregon State University. Aimed at current and former student athletes alike, our organization aims to provide a platform for student-athletes to experience the world outside of Corvallis & the United States, and use the energy that defines them to serve others.

This is a story about how one small boy has helped make a big difference in two communities half a world apart. In October 2009, Patric and Holly Campbell traveled to Ethiopia to adopt their youngest child, Miles, who is now 4 years old. They also have a 7-year-old daughter, Lauryn. To better unde...

Never before in her life has Julia Sattler played for a crowd this big. As she steps out of the van that brought her to this Sunday soccer match and sees at least 1,000 people lining the field, she can’t help it. Overjoyed, she starts to cry.

Back at the worksite this morning more plaster was needed so I stripped off my shoes and socks and got into the mud to mix. I think all my dead skin was exfoliated yesterday because mixing the dirt, water and straw hurt. I actually ended up with quite a few little scratches all over my feet and l...

Today the road into the work site was too wet and we had to walk in. It was a slow go and I was surprised that no one ate it since the mud was very slippery.

Today it started to rain after lunch so we weren’t able to make it back to the worksite in the afternoon because the road was pure mud. It’s okay though because we’re pretty far ahead of schedule.

We continued south of the capital city towards Butajira, the town where we will spend most of the trip. The views of the land were breathtaking as the skies were clear and the sun was beginning to go down.
