Description

Join over 200 UNLV students for our semesterly tradition, Service Day. This Fall Service Day, go out and do three hours of service with various community partners around the Las Vegas Valley. Tasks vary depending on what the community partner may need but volunteers can expect to lift heavy items, be consistently moving throughout the day and doing all sorts of repetitive tasks. Please make sure you wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. No exceptions will be made for anyone wearing otherwise. Long-sleeve shirt also highly encouraged.

Volunteers will meet at the Student Union ballroom. Please make sure to arrive on time at 8 a.m. to meet with your group and participate in a short educational activity with your volunteer group.

We strongly encourage carpooling to the site to facilitate and make things easier for all participants. Please stay afterwards to join us for our post service celebration with free food and other vendors!

Volunteers clean, and repair gently used books that Spread the Word Nevada will distribute to students at underserved schools.  Volunteers will help sort and box community and teacher resource books that STWN will distribute to our partnered schools this year.
