As OLLU continues the celebration of its 125th anniversary, faculty, staff and students are invited to help OLLU complete a goal of 125,000 service hours by May 2021 with a pledge for “Our 125th Service Legacy.”
To honor the university’s founders, the Congregation of Divine Providence, OLLU Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Dr. Lourdes Alvarez, announced at convocation a goal to complete service hours that would benefit 125 nonprofits within the community.
With much community need, there are still many opportunities to sign up to volunteer and serve. Volunteer service can be anything from helping a nonprofit organization to teaching religious education classes to helping at a child’s school. Direct service, and even philanthropy from faculty and staff, will also count toward the goal of reaching 125,000 service hours by May.
The Center for Service-Learning and Volunteerism is continuing to encourage those who wish to participate to click on this link and pledge service hours for the 2020-2021 academic year.
