Mission
The Eagle Volunteers Program supports the Office of Community Engagement by connecting students to the needs of the community through meaningful service and fostering a culture of community engagement at EWU. The Eagle Volunteers Program accomplishes this work by:
- Providing EWU students transformative educational experiences through academic and co-curricular service-learning opportunities.
- Engaging and empowering students as leaders that model the way of engaged service on campus and in the community.
- Developing programs that are purposeful and provide an educational experience for our students while meeting critical community needs.
- Raising awareness of community needs, assets and social justice issues impacting the communities we serve.
- Serving as liaisons between the campus and community in order to cultivate strong campus-community partnerships.
