SUNY Oswego students provided over 17,500 hours of service to the community last year.  Many students are involved in student-led volunteer programs including Adopt-A-Grandparent, Mentor Oswego, Special Olympics, Habitat for Humanity, Alternative Break and Red Cross Club.  We have a variety of resources to help you find a volunteer opportunity that fits you!

Join our Volunteer Listserv and receive emails about volunteer opportunities, search our online volunteer placement database, check out the Volunteer Calendar for all upcoming volunteer events, or visit our office in 142 Campus Center and speak with our friendly staff.
