Resources Available for Volunteer Projects
Still looking for a volunteer project? Visit our Virtual Volunteer Fair showcasing the non-profit and service groups who participated in our volunteer fair at Gobblerfest 2009.
Volunteers--Let us know what your project is all about and we can market it and help you find volunteers on our website. Send your service project information to Karen Gilbert.
Funding--There are limited grant funds available for service projects developed by students. Contact Karen Gilbert for more information.
Transportation--The Center has a van that can be used to transport students to and from a service project. Contact Sharon Luz, Office Administrator well in advance of your project date to reserve the van.
Hokie Hands Trailer--A new trailer stocked full of tools is now available for volunteer projects. You can borrow the complete trailer or just borrow the tools you need from the trailer. The 5' X 10' utility trailer includes:
