It’s Global Days of Service this week at Walden! Students, alumni, faculty, and staff around the globe will be participating in community service activities to make a difference to others. Volunteering is a wonderful way to learn about issues facing your community, meet new people, have new experiences, and most importantly, contribute to positive social change. Our planet is facing many challenges. As members of the Walden community, we have a wide range of knowledge, skills, and energy to contribute. Here are some resources to help you find a volunteering opportunity that fits your values and interests this week and beyond:
