At Lawrence, there are many ways to get involved in the community, both on and off campus. If you are unsure of what you are interested in, we have several main areas of service. You can read more about those service areas here.
Each service area has many community organisations that the Volunteer Center partners with and helps set up volunteer opportunities for these organizations. All upcoming events can be found on GivePulse.
