It’s all about celebrating YOU and the incredible ways you make a difference in the Appleton area. Don’t miss it!
🌸 Spring Term:
National Volunteer Week
This week-long celebration is all about making meaningful change — together! During National Volunteer Week, the CCE hosts daily volunteer opportunities both on and off campus, offering a wide range of ways for you to give back and get involved. Whether you're planting pollinator gardens, packing hygiene kits, painting murals, or helping out at local food pantries, every project you complete supports a local organization right here in the Fox Cities.
We wrap up the week with a joyful celebration of our campus volunteers — featuring free treats, service-themed raffles, fun swag, and recognition ceremonies. It’s our way of saying THANK YOU for the time, energy, and passion you’ve shared throughout the year. Come for the service, stay for the celebration!
Spring into Service
Looking to dive deeper into service in a short amount of time? Spring into Service is your moment! This one-day event is packed with purpose and connection. We invite local community organizations to join us on campus to share who they are, what they do, and how they serve the Fox Cities — all while working side by side with Lawrence students on meaningful service projects.
It’s a chance to roll up your sleeves, make a direct impact, and build real relationships with the people and groups working to make our community stronger. Whether you're new to volunteering or a seasoned changemaker, Spring into Service is a great way to do good and feel good — together.
