Community Service & Volunteer Opportunities
"There is nothing stronger than the heart of a volunteer."
Student Life & Leadership (SL & L) and Student Leadership Forum (SLF) regularly plan organized opportunities for members of the SCC campus to give back to our surrounding community. Such projects include Make A Difference Day each fall, College to the Community in mid-winter for faculty and staff, and Into the Streets in Spring. There is also the Volunteer! Fair each fall, where local agencies visit campus to let us know where we can help out-and, projects like The Clothesline Across Campus, where everyone has an opportunity to clean out their closets and drawers just before the holiday season to donate clothing to those in need. In addition, we have a Volunteer Calendar published two times a year and available to you by an office visit.
