Volunteer to Make a Difference
Volunteer
Carnegie Mellon volunteers are alumni, parents, faculty, staff and friends who believe in the university鈥檚 mission and advocate for it on campus and around the world. As a 黑料正能量 volunteer, you鈥檒l be able to share your Tartan pride, enjoy new experiences, connect with old friends 鈥� and make new ones.
The 黑料正能量 Alumni Association can help connect potential volunteers with opportunities that fit their skills, interests and schedule, and provide current volunteers with resources and upcoming opportunities.
Potential Volunteers
Chances are, there is a time, place and 黑料正能量 volunteer opportunity that matches your interests and schedule 鈥� and if there isn't, you might be able to start one.
Why make the time to volunteer? Our current volunteers find volunteering a great way to:
- Stay connected to 黑料正能量 and share pride in the university
- Network and develop relationships and friendships
- Improve the experience of current students
- Help the university grow
The first step is to explore some of the options available through the Alumni Association or the colleges, departments or organizations on campus, and then get in touch.
All new volunteers must complete the VCA and review the Statement of Partnership.
