National Volunteer Week web banner 2021

In lieu of Coyote Cares Day this year, the Office of Community Engagement (OCE) at Cal State San Bernardino invites the campus community to participate in National Volunteer Week, April 18-24.

The OCE and campus community will celebrate National Volunteer Week and Earth Day by sustaining the environment through service. Starting Monday, April 19, the office will provide a bucket list of ways you can get involved. Anyone who completes four or more of the challenges will receive exclusive OCE swag.

In addition, a virtual volunteer fair is planned for April 20-22, where students can watch videos from community partners and complete a virtual scavenger hunt. Students who complete the scavenger hunt, in its entirety, will receive exclusive OCE swag.
