Are you looking for a group of like-minded individuals who value service and community? Are you looking to give back? Here at the Volunteer Action Center, a student-led volunteer organization on campus, you'll find what you're looking for! The center is home to many like-minded individuals who value service and making a positive impact on their communities, and we are currently looking for new volunteers for the upcoming year!
