NDSU groups organize ‘The Big Event’ service project

SHARE

NDSU’s Volunteer Network, Student Government and Alumni Association are organizing an all-day volunteer program on April 24 called “The Big Event.” The purpose is to bring together individuals from NDSU to serve the Fargo-Moorhead community as a way to say “Thank you.”

Organizers say this year’s goal to provide more than 500 student volunteers to local non-profit agencies and homes to help with various projects.

Students, faculty and staff who know people who live close to NDSU who could use the help of volunteers this spring, specifically those who may otherwise be unable to accomplish around-the-house tasks, should refer them to the Volunteer Network. Job request forms are available at www.ndsubigevent.com and must be submitted by April 6 for consideration.

Shifts are two hours each from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Lunch and T-shirts will be provided to the first 500 volunteers who sign up at www.ndsubigevent.com by April 13.

For more information, contact the Volunteer Network.
