Volunteering

Volunteering offers students a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in community organization, sustainability practices, environmental stewardship, while contributing to meaningful projects. Additionally, volunteering can be recorded on your co-curricular record, demonstrating your commitment to community involvement and sustainability.

Currently we do not have any opportunities to volunteer in our green space on the 7th floor. However, the gardening groups at Loyola are always looking for volunteers. Explore available volunteer opportunities below and take the first step towards community egagement.
