Civic Engagement Opportunities through Student Employment
Students with Federal Work Study can volunteer off-campus to earn their award. Plus — learn about student employment opportunities like being a Ministrare Peer Leader, Civic Engagement Van Driver, and team leaders for programs (see Clinton Fellows and Service Journeys).
Service Journeys
Service Journeys are multi-day immersive experiences for Wellesley students to engage in the greater community during spring break. They offer an opportunity to reflect on their understanding of civic engagement and embrace the joy of service.
On-Campus Service
Serve and build community on campus side-by-side with fellow students, supported by the Ministrare Peer Leaders!
Off-Campus Service
Civic Engagement can work with you to find ways to volunteer with local organizations off-campus.
"Through the Quad fellowship, I’m excited to meet like-minded people to bridge the gap between science and society, creating scientific discoveries that make a positive impact on the world."
“If you're passionate about research, it’ll come through. Even just applying is worthwhile as you learn so much along the way."
