Civic Engagement is an integral part of life at Â鶹ÊÓƵ. We empower students to be active citizens through volunteering and service learning. We partner with local non-profit organizations to provide opportunities for growth and giving for Cardinal Nation.
Our office provides service opportunities for students that can be as short as one afternoon or as long as a semester or academic year. We're here to help you individually or as a student organization to identify and achieve your service goals.
The Big Event is LU's biggest one-day service project. Student sign-up will open in January 2023. Local non-profits and charitable organizations can request services here until March 15, 2023.
