Service Learning & Volunteering

There are many ways to get involved on campus and in the community. Volunteering is fulfilling work that makes a substantial difference.

Check out the new website Volunteer Bemidji, where you will find a variety of organizations that are looking for volunteers.

Additionally, here is a list of sustainability related organizations in the community that have a need for volunteers. As a courtesy, make sure to call at least a week ahead of time to give the organization time to plan for you.
