The Center for Student Engagement invites you to participate in our fourth annual Martin Luther King Day of Service. Volunteers will sign up for shifts that will contain service opportunities at multiple locations in the community. Each volunteer shift includes:
  • a brief welcome and overview of the Martin Luther King Day of Service
  • transportation from campus to a volunteer site, and back afterward
  • a reflective discussion with other volunteers
  • lunch in between the morning and afternoon shifts, featuring a panel of community leaders to engage in a dialogue about how we can work together to advance Dr. King's vision of equity and inclusion in our own community
Actual time volunteering at sites will be roughly 2 hours for each shift.
