The Coyote Cares Day volunteers worked on campus packaging dry soup mix for the needy and also out in the field at a domestic violence shelter, a food bank and community centers.
Nearly 300 CSUSB students and alumni spent Saturday, April 23, to volunteer for Coyote Cares Day, a day of volunteer service on campus and in local communities.
Coyote Cares Day, which beings at 7:45 a.m. on Saturday, is a day of volunteer service in local communities that provides CSUSB students with an understanding of the work of nonprofit organizations and engages the students through volunteer service.
CSUSB faculty, staff and students found ways to help the community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Take a look back to earlier this spring when Lacey Kendall and three friends developed technology to help historic Black churches in Riverside and San Bernardino counties go virtual as the COVID-19 pandemic prevented gatherings such as worship services.
As part of the university’s celebration of National Volunteer Week, take a look back to when CSUSB began its participation in a nationwide study to advance the understanding of students’ interests and experiences regarding approaches to public service.
In 2018, Diane Vines, a nursing instructor at CSUSB and its Palm Desert Campus, created the Street Medicine program to provide much-needed healthcare services to people in the Coachella Valley.
A look back: Nursing student Bianca Castro traveled to northern Thailand to help abused animals at the Elephant Nature Park, creating a significant impact on those voiceless beings in need.
The Office of Community Engagement invites the campus community to participate in National Volunteer Week, April 18-24, where participants can win prizes while sustaining the environment through service.
