Posted: Monday, March 31, 2014National Volunteer Week: April 7-12
The Volunteer and Service-Learning Center will facilitate SUNY Buffalo State’s participation in National Volunteer Week Monday, April 7, through Saturday, April 12, as an opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to be inspired, recognized, and encouraged to engage in the Buffalo community through volunteerism and service learning. The VSLC’s National Volunteer Week will provide various programming opportunities for students, faculty, and staff that will recognize student leaders, encourage students to participate in service, and inspire those who have not yet engaged in the community through service-learning courses or volunteerism.
