Student Resources
As of Summer 2025, the office has officially reopened. We’re excited about what’s ahead as we continue building.
For Students
Eastern Washington University students are encouraged to get engaged in their community. Whether you are looking for a service-learning placement, large group service projects, or just want to volunteer in your community the Office of Community Engagement is here to help!
We Assist Students by:
- Helping to identify opportunities that fit your interests, schedule, or service-learning project goals.
- Providing consultation and training to students planning large group service projects.
- Connecting you with other students interested in service and community engagement.
Ways You Can Get Involved
Enroll in a
Service-Learning Course
Service-learning courses provide EWU students an opportunity to apply course content to real-world settings by providing meaningful service to a community organization.
Volunteer regularly at
a local non-profit
Local non-profits throughout our region are looking for college student volunteers. Consider mentoring local youth, serving dinner at a community meal site, teaching a knitting class at a drop-in center, playing board games with seniors at an assisted living facility or much more.
Join the Eagle Volunteers Leadership Team!
Applications open every April for students interested in joining the team for the upcoming academic year. This is your opportunity to get involved, develop leadership skills, and make a meaningful impact on your campus and community.
Organize a group service
project for your club or organization
Local non-profits are often in need of student groups to assist with annual fundraising events, to plan food and clothing drives, or to help with much-needed facilities projects like painting or assisting with renovations.
Participate in a
community-based internship
EWU’s Career Services office can support you in finding internships at local non-profits or governmental agencies. Internships allow you to learn more about the field and gain important professional skills.
