Grants offered for community service projects

The Office of Engagement is accepting applications for the Student Grant Program for Community Service/Service-Learning Projects.

The program offers grants of up to $1,500 to students or student organizations in support of their work on community service projects or service-learning activities.

The program goal is to expand the community involvement of Purdue students in partnership with communities, nonprofit organizations, schools and governmental bodies. During the fall, some $58,000 was invested in 51 student community service/service-learning projects. 

Applications are due for the spring semester on or before Feb.1. Inquires can be directed to Cheryl Butz in the Office of Engagement at 49-49095 or e-mail cab@purdue.edu.  More information is available here.
