Glazer Gives Back

Small Projects. Big Impact. Right Here on Campus.

Looking for a quick, meaningful way to give back to your community?
Glazer Gives Back is a series of on-campus service events hosted by the Glazer Center for Leadership & Service that make volunteering easy, fun, and impactful. No transportation, no long-term commitment — just an hour (or less!) of your time to do good.
