Opportunities for Students

Students Serving our Local Community

Imagine joining a campus group that effects positive change on our campus, in our community, and throughout the world. Imagine spending several hours a week connecting with the Ithaca community. Get off campus: give a child a chance at education; be a friend to an elderly resident; advocate on behalf of women or the disabled. Imagine using the experiences, knowledge, and skills gained through your college experience to live a life committed to effecting social change throughout the United States and the world. Imagine using your work study award to work with professionals in fields such as child care, mental health, environmental conservation, eldercare, women's and children's advocacy, engineering/public works, and the local schools.

It's all possible, and we're here to help!  Stop imagining it -- start doing it!
