Volunteering

Getting out into the community is a goal we have for students beyond their time in the classroom and working together with the local community is important to us.

We host a variety of opportunities throughout the year for students to volunteer on their own or with us in the local community and beyond. And volunteering is a great way to meet new people while adding experience and skills to your resume.

Student Life can help!

Join us for days of service like Brock Cares, or on local experiences with Alternative Reading Weeks, as well as at a number of events and fundraisers both on and off campus that we host in partnership with great community organizations.

Visit the ExperienceBU calendar to see what events are happening at Brock and in the community.
