The VSLC

The mission of the Volunteer & Service-Learning Center (VSLC) is to engage students in effective volunteer and service-learning activities in order to strengthen communities, promote an enduring commitment to civic responsibility, and enhance the academic experience.

The VSLC believes that service offers a great learning opportunity. We hope that after participating in service activities students will gain:

• awareness of community and social issues
• respect for diversity in all its forms
• personal growth and self-leadership

The VSLC staff assists student volunteers and service-learners with finding service sites, facilitate national days of service and service trips, support student led service programs, implement service initiatives, and track service hours performed and reported by students.

ECU faculty and Community Partners are also supported by the VSLC staff as they work with volunteers and service-learners to address community needs.

Join us for exciting programs such as the Campus Kitchen and ECU~READS/ WRITES/COUNTS as well as meaningful events like Holocaust Awareness Day.
