3^rd annual CHAMP Day of Service

Saturday, April 13, 2013

This spring the Office of Civic Engagement will be holding its third annual CHAMP Day of Service. This community day provides an opportunity for students, staff, faculty, and alumni to give back to the Duluth community by working on a number of site-based projects with local agencies. This year's event will be held on Saturday, April 13th, as a kick-off event for National Volunteer Week. Please mark your calendars for this important community outreach event, and keep an eye out for more information and opportunities to register during the spring semester. We encourage faculty members who are incorporating community-based learning into their syllabus to also encourage students to participate in CHAMP Day of Service.
